Summer, spring and backpacks

Quickly before I get to bed :-)

On my holiday [tomorrow I am going back to work and sadly I may not have too much time for sewing and crafting] I managed to make couple of backpacks. One fancy, made of leatherette and the other... of old J's trousers!

I even managed to keep the original back pocket which was originally in his trousers [the image on the right]. The trousers I also made many years ago and the fabric was still very good... the size of the trousers was not.

Some accidental crops in our garden - they grow in the pot which was under the bird-feeder. 

And I even got some flax seeds for myself. OK, so it is not a vast amount, but still, out of couple of seeds not a bad turnover?!

Food-wise- a lot of updates at ricewithapples. And here something which is not yet there - beef burgers on home-baked rye and walnut buns. J, holding the plate, was so keen on eating it, that his hand was a bit shaky... bless...

And one more thing- spring or summer?
Primula is flowering already/again?!

 And who said the the strawberry season was over?

And just to remind ourselves that it actually is August and just because I can not get enough of them -sunflowers

and some dill...
