“Lazy afternoons”

Well, the title is kind of misleading hehe. It’s not really lazy as in do-nothing-sit-all-afternoon-in-front-of-TV-lazy… it’s more like, forget the chores and go out and have fun kind of lazy hehe. So there you go… a disclaimer! No wonder it’s on quote *wink* :)

Any who, following are our “lazy afternoons” escapades… who starts a post with a disclaimer??? Duh! :P

A couple of Saturdays ago few families in our neighborhood have carried out a garage sale and so we decided to check them out and, what a gorgeous day that day was!

Do you know that June is National Fruit and Vegetable Month? Well, at least that’s what it says in one of the website I visited when looking for a place to go strawberry picking hehe. Yep, you learn something new every day! Turned out there are quite a few farms around here that do U-pick fruits and vegetables and that June is the best time to go strawberry picking. So… we went strawberry picking! Our first time too and it was fun!

So what to we do with all these strawberries?! Google alert! Search: “Strawberry Jam recipe” and ta-da! It tastes really good!

Just an update on the bird’s nest... it is now the house of little birdies chirping their lungs away! How did we know this? Well, we noticed that the mommy bird doesn’t come as often as she used to anymore and so while she’s away… we sneak a peek! hehe… we just wanted to make sure everything is alright and taken care of, you know… yeah, right! Ha-ha! Actually the real story was, while we were looking at it from inside the house and thinking whether there is even anything in there (and as to why mommy bird doesn’t come as often as she used to anymore)… a tiny bird head popped out! and we all jumped in excitement and did what we did… sneak a peek! And sure enough, there they are… all three of them!

poor little bird opened its mouth thinking food is coming… how cute! too bad it’s just an intruder :(

and a week later...

this came as a surprise to us... we checked again just today... and what do we find??? FIVE little birds!!! wow! and those are bird droppings around hahaha! eeeww!
