“No Brie for me!”

Says one little cracker.

Say what?

I think it’s a language thing.

I hope it’s a language thing.

Nothing exceeds like excess.

Hey you! A reminder!

Always work cartefully! Especially with the shirll!

We’ve awoken to frost several days in a row. I decided I should get organized and have a small toolbox in the house, so I don’t have to venture out to the barbacoa in nasty weather in order to get something simple done inside. Our local Emaus thrift store had just the ticket: full size pliers, cutters, and needle-nose pliers for just under USD 11.

I’ll go way out on a limb and speculate that perhaps they’re not the best quality, but for occasional use I expect they’ll work just fine.

Some people…

…like all of us?

Self-service produce weighing: “Please don’t put stickers on the scale or the table.”

What else would you do with them?

Another wild sky

Why?

No, I didn’t put it there.

Guess who else likes paltas?

I put the avocados I pick up off the ground on the patio table (otherwise unused this time of year, hence dirty). This one was quite damaged, but perfect for our well-fed little robin friend. In the past, it has feasted on fruit on the tree, so this is a welcome development.

Just another skyscape

Not perfect, but not bad

I noticed an awning support outside our kitchen window was rotting. I thought, I can do this!

After measuring, I went to Aserradero Rocha in nearby Pinamar, where you can rummage through off-cuts for any length of wood you need, an unusual and welcome feature.

Leaning against the window is a temporary support pole I kluged together. The little piece at the top the remaining length of the piece of lumber I purchased for the project…which I find oddly satisfying.
