Sjoerd, birds are safe around here. Timi watches birds, drinks out of the bird watering station, and occasionally makes a futile leap at a bird....
Cats be cats, and you can't keep them out of your gardens, and you can't keep them out of your hearts. Timi likes to roll around in the path to...

Tuesday in the kitchen! I roasted two pie pumpkins to make puree to be frozen, and made pastry for tonight's quiche. The pumpkin is cooling so I...
