The Curse of the Black Thumb


I've lamented before about my curse...

Some days I'd be quite happy to just order a truck full of concrete...


But this week my little brother came to the rescue instead....

.. and peace and tranquility has been restored to the neighbourhood.

  3. Just looked back at your linked posts and got a great laugh thank you - I am similarly gifted. Who wants to be out there pulling weeds when there is so much to do in the sewing room! Actually I can admit to going out with a kettle full of boiling vinegar once. It worked but still... better things to do thanks! Thank goodness for little brothers. : )

  7. Instant improvement! At least from my computer screen. Now you just need to book him in for a regular cleanup once a month and you'll be set!
