Spring Growth

Spring at our place never seems like spring until our Jacaranda tree blooms and just in the last couple of days it has really come out with its beautiful purple blooms. When I was at uni they were called the purple peril because it meant that end of year exams were looming. We'd walk over the purple carpet of fallen blooms on our way to the last couple of weeks of lectures.

It seems the Jacaranda isn't the only thing changing. Anika hasn't grown for a couple of years but in the last month or so has grown a centimetre.

This morning, just to add to the huge amount of evidence that males have "kitchen blindness", Hubby glopped some yoghurt onto his cereal and put the empty container into the sink for rinsing and recycling. We ate breakfast and later I was clearing up and saw that the "best before 13 Oct" yoghurt should have been thrown out as some unhealthy like organisms had made residence there:



Hubby had no idea of their existence as he glopped his yoghurt. I decided to turn the fridge up a few notches to accomodate the warmer weather and not accomodate the undesirables. Eek!
