Summer Harvest.


It was a productive morning with a good harvest of pickling cucumbers, salad greens, silverbeet/pak choy and kang kong (aka water bamboo). We made granola for the week and two loaves of bread. Pretty fruitful for a morning's work. 

Heavy, heavy rain throughout the night filled our pool almost to the brim and cleared the skies for a sunny afternoon. The children made full use of all that today and played to their hearts' content.

We are still getting to know the newest child on the lane and learning more about South African culture, as he also warms up to life in New Zealand. So far, it seems that life here is much safer than it is back in SA. Also, playing with other children outside is new to him and something he seems to be enjoying so far.
