What's new pussycat?

What's new Chez Jonker?
We've got a new kitchen bin. It's fancy: opens when you wave your detritus over the top of it and closes automatically too.
It's currently my favourite piece of furniture.
We spent today doing some garden maintenance, inspired by what is happening in our garden without any input from LAFE:
Beautiful frangipani out-front, making our house look purrrty :)
And, lo, the fugly tree next to the back patio turns out to be...
...a mango!!! There have been 4 fruit to date, 2 of which are already on the ground. We are instigating a watering program for "out-back" so that next year we might harvest some of our own mangoes.

  1. Love the new bin! Fabulous! I have been for some time desiring one of those dual rubbish and recycling stainless steel look numbers, but once I saw the automatic one.....what a revelation..... though I am sure at our house it would be up-down up-down with the lid 'close that bloody bin!!!!' once Leyla woked it out. Which would happen in the first 3 seconds.
    Hey, have cute pics of Freya/Esther/Leyla together at our palce and will download them from camera and send this weekend- will leave up to you to crop out Esther's pink undies from shot! Love Liesl.
