Kittens @ Pet Shop

These playful kittens were retailing for A$200. I know Ken would love to buy one home.

Gardening

Ken's gardening enthusiasm has spurred us to plant some chilli plant and sow some Daisy seeds. We choose chilli coz we are hopeful that we can harvest some chilli sometime soon and also chilli was retailing in the supermarket at A$10 per kg. I was just commenting it cost more than chicken and cheap beef cuts per kg. The Daisy seeds were given to us by our water company. This is our first time doing gardening and since we are in an apartment the toilet became our work area.

A bag of 25 liter potting mix for A$3.10

Didn't know the seeds were that tiny :P
Sowing the Daisy seeds
Waiting for the afternoon sun
Hopfully with some TLC, we will get some chillis and daisies soon. ;-)

Hot Day

Sun's shining bright today but its really windy. Berms and tees seem to be popping up on more people. As for us, we can do without our jacket for once (maybe we have lotsa fats thats why). We caught the movie 'Little Fish' today. Its about an ex druggie's (Cate Blanchett) life, her family and the uncertainty she faces ahead. No pics today but we took a few on Sunday. Check it out below. Sunday 28/08/05 Spring is just days away and I am feeling the heat. I thought to myself - I am going to miss winter. I think the temperature is 21 degree celcius today but it feels like in the high 20s to 30s. Nevertheless we still enjoyed the day. We attended church in the morning, had lunch in the city, walked around Federation Sq., stroll along Yarra River and caught the tram to St. Kilda.

Serena had Duck and Siew Yok Noodles for Lunch
Ken had Duck and Siew Yok Noodles in Curry for Lunch
