Time lapse Tuesday

Guess what, no growth to report in the amaryllis department.  Here is Rose expressing her perplexity at its lack of enthusiasm.

That was just before she flicked compost all over the carpet with the end of the tape.

Not much has been going on here (other than snow) but on a protecting the furnishings from your kids note here are the take-them-of-and-shove-them-in-the-washing-machine-almost-ketchup-proof slip covers I made to try to preserve the dining chairs.

You will also note the stain resistant, cheap area rug over the light coloured, shag pile carpet.  I mean really? In the dining room? Clearly real children did not enter the property with a view to food consumption.
