On a much more cheerful note

[nanila]

Here is Keiki with our first radish harvest from our garden:

He ate all of his. Humuhumu found them too peppery.

Here are Keiki and Humuhumu eating ice creams. Humuhumu is dressed as a pirate princess (outfit concept all hers). Keiki is dressed in one of the two shirts that don't cause him to start screaming as soon as you put it on him, holey black trousers and a single croc.


And here is Telstar defeating a stick whilst lounging in the porch of the tent in our garden.

Radishes! They're so pretty. I want to grow them this year.

Pirate princess is an excellent costume concept. <3

[nanila]

Yes! They're especially yummy when they're small.

I'm looking forward to seeing what she comes up with for Halloween this year. :D

He keeps us safe. :)

Radishes!

Have you told her about Anne Bonney and Mary Reid? Princesses they definitely were not but pirates? Oh yes!

[nanila]

Heh, not yet! She does love Jem from Swashbuckle but has yet to encounter actual historical pirates.

Don't forget Grace O'Malley!

There's even a musical: The Pirate Queen!

I find radishes very peppery as well.

Pirate Princess is a great idea. (The Princess In Black is a great book for princesses that want to go deal with monsters.)

Excellent work, Telstar.

I find them peppery too. We've grown a few different varieties and I have found the little red ones to be the best/sweetest. I can eat those raw. The white ones are too strong.

This weekend, Humuhumu made herself a red mask and spent most of it dressed up as Owlette from PJ Masks.

Lovely to meet your cat! He's gorgeous.

Love Humuhumu's costume! She has a good imagination by the looks.

Go Keiki eating all his radishes! I always found them a bit too peppery as a child too. Now I love flavour that smacks me between the eyes lol.

In addition to being a handsome tuxie, Telstar is one of the gentlest cats I've ever met. I have been clawed by him exactly twice.

I still find most radishes a little peppery for unadulterated enjoyment, but I do like the little red ones as they have a tempering sweetness.

What a lovely garden experience! Thank you for sharing. Happy kids and cat helps my day.

I'm glad! We had a really nice weekend, especially today which was sunny and warm, in spite of Keiki and me being ill.

I love Humuhumu's outfit!

Well done Telstar, you beat the stick!

[nanila]

She does some top-notch dressing up. I went upstairs to run the bath tonight & found her in a witch hat and broomstick, zooming around her room.

Telstar is a mighty stick hunter, oh yes.
