Happy Halloween!
Oh, stop that! That's too early. Haha, I'm so sorry but as soon as I wake up I made breakfast for the kids, help them get ready, send them to school, clean the mess and open the windows letting the fresh air in the house and that's the time I saw these cobwebs in the grass and on the hedge and everywhere outside. It looks like it's been decorated for Halloween!
And mind you these weren't here yesterday! How did these leggy engineers create this masterpiece overnight? And where they all come from because surely these are not made by a solo artist.
It was foggy this morning and that brings the heat. You can barely see the fields. But still a beautiful sight. My first stop after cleaning and putting the washing on is to feed Thumper.
Well aside from his food, I'm giving him fresh carrots every day. He's here now at his hutch because the last time that we let him out to hop about the garden he caused too much trouble in the lane which made our neighbours not-so-happy.
Then my next stop is to water the tomatoes in the greenhouse. As you can see I have some ripe ones ready to pick. And still have loads to harvest. We already had some of these juicy tomatoes and it's very good this year. Mum enjoyed it with her salad cream. If I only have salted eggs I can eat this every day with it.
Home growing is very rewarding. Just proper care and you will reap what you sow. Didn't take long!
There are weeds everywhere again but I leave these for now and I'll do it with the kids when they're off on the weekends. They love pulling the weeds helping us tidying up the place. It's really not easy to keep a big garden believe me.
And here I go again amazed with the cobwebs as I have never seen as many like this before and I can't tell you if it's good or bad but spiders here is harmless as I've been told.
And this is the time of the year that they're making their webs overnight and making it bigger getting ready for this autumn. This is their mating season so Wow, this is the mating place! They choose our garden. I should ask for their rent. Lol. And let's go hunt spiders. There! Look at that!
Do you notice the cobwebs are not all the same? So some are made by engineers and some are made by frustrated engineers lol. But seriously, it's a masterpiece.
My brothers and friends in the Philippines used to hunt spiders. This is a big thing when I was young. We put it inside the match and let it fight with other spiders. The bigger the better. I enjoyed watching that when I was little. Others will surely relate!
And look more cobwebs!!! Can you imagine how many spiders we have in our garden right now lol?
And oh don't fool me, you're not a spider! You're too cute ladybug.
And you as well, you definitely not a spider, what are you doing here in our garden? And what do you call yourself?
And that's me today in the garden having fun, enjoying the early Halloween special. I still have cooking, folding clothes to do after that. (Done.) I have to go to Homebase for wood and get milk. (Gotcha!) Before the kids come home from school. (They're sleeping now.)
Thank you for reading.
Greenery every where. The weather also looks pleasing. You seemed to be surrounded with blessed nature. Vegetables and pets and lastly the smart Engineer spiders, as you call. Half our health issues are over when we live in such a place. Trust me.
