Hand it to me!

I enjoy photography, and so do many of my friends. Here is one of them, who knows the value of recording our personal stories ... I think we met in 1989 or 90 ... but thats going back a bit, for me!



The other day He surprised me with this picture of my hand, taken when I was a slip of a girl, almost 20 years ago (cough).



I almost didn't recognise this smooth and slightly chubby limb as mine, so long have I been looking down at my hands of late, as a craft worker and Mummy.


These hands have seen a lot of Arts and crafts, lived in different places and nursed four daughters. They currently paint, sew, clean, carry, chop and mix and turn pages, and type - I actually like computers now! Which is handy ...

A snack for Jess!

not something we can get in the UK, so I had to go googling to see some - do you know what this is?

Here are some ................................Tiger Hands!

But why the Big Paws? .....

spring rain ...

using the stickers and instructions in our potato growers kit, we made this lovely rain gauge ...

and then it rained ... sorry about that ...



following our pipeworks from last year, we had a repair done to the cement on the patio, and of course we had to leave our mark. our hands looked great after the rain had filled them too ...



i like this time of year, the light is brighter, the days longer and things are growing ... soon i hope to see a shoot from one of our aforementioned potatoes ...
