Waiting for husband to get ready

HWe are going to see our new baby grandson. He is our first grandchild and it feels quite amazing. I wish they were a bit closer. It's only 1/2 hour or so but just a bit far for popping in. He will be two weeks old tomorrow and changing already. 

I didn't get round to planting yesterday just chopping up all the palm fronds and wisteria I'm pulling out from behind the pool. It's such a mess the landscaper looked at it and ran for the hills. So I'm just working away at it. You can move mountains bucket by bucket, well if you live long enough. I made some nice bread and a Jamie Oliver marmalade cake which was really nice, I made it with sumo mandarins. Also finished some socks and the first square of a baby rug. I love the pattern very simple and self edging. A pattern for washers.
