Went to fetch them when supper was ready.

Someone caught his dinner - no potato peelings for him! (No, not really - we catch and release, right now):

Saturday morning dawned grey and drizzly. I wanted a minute or two alone, so I walked down and checked on the Lady Slippers. They're doing right well, I think:

After dinner, the Evil Genius had a bath and then we had this for dessert:

Mum made it, and the Evil Genius dug the torch she used to melt caramelize the sugar.

Sunday morning, we had an easy start, drove home, and found (among other things)this:

One of the cucumbers is flowering! Wahoo!

How was your weekend?
