DH was quite successful making purchases yesterday morning, now we never know what the menus will be for the next days except of course pasta or rice!
He managed to find almost what was on the "wish" list. So we had fish and vegetables. Today "raclette" -cheese raclette.
En ces périodes compliquées, nos courses furent un succès et les menus virtuels se trouvèrent réellement dans nos assiettes.
Lors de notre séance de jardinage hier, les pavés disparus sous l'herbe du jardin ont été retrouvés grâce à l'archéologue maison !
We did a lot of work in the garden those past days, preparing the vegetable garden, cleaning flowerbeds, I found my "coeur de Marie" (lyre flower) was ready to grow and some mushrooms under the leaves!
As DH and DD2 were cleaning the terrasse, they looked for some pavers "lost" under the grass for years. Felt like some kind of "archeologist" and our "home Indiana Jones" finally found them as this picture proves.
We had some chat which our grandchildren, playing some letters games together and Capucine shown us drawings and the new calendar she made with her mum. It's hard for kids to stay at home and she cryed because she wanted to go to school and she don't understand why she can't.The homework for her brother is well organized by his teacher, lessons and homeworks are sent by email and each pupil writes every day some toughts and comments their day. The teacher is collecting them to make kind of a class book to keep the class spirit living.
Ecole et devoirs à la maison pour les petits enfants et bricolage avec maman pour ce superbe calendrier fait main.
Of course I'm sewing and stitching every afternoon but I'm not the only one, DH is finishing the kite he was preparing for our trip to Italy which was planned and now cancelled for next April. There is a big kite festival in Cervia and it was our 60 years birthdays gift. Work holiday schedule for three weeks, budget, rent, road trip, we started to plan it 18 months ago and now all we have left is the map! We only wish we'll be able to do it another year.The pattern of the kite he chose to make is a tie...
Le ciel de l'Italie ne verra pas notre cerf-volant peut-être le ciel cassien si le montage se passe bien.
Our neighbour's cat appreciates we are confined at home, she hears me open the shutters and arrives a few moments later on the window sill for a little visit.
Darjeeling apprécie que ses voisins soient confinés, cela lui offre plus de câlins et une visite matinale dès que les volets s'ouvrent.
