Weekends are for...

Picking fresh strawberries from the garden!

knitting....

...watching the hypericum and

tomatoes grow!

Lets not forget about marathon TV...literally and figuratively (Thanks Wool Girl...yum!!!)...

And having Max help me with the blogging

until he is too pooped out and catches 40 winks in the middle of it all!
