power of plants

Our exuberant ficus elastica - once rescued at the plant store in the 'damaged houseplant corner' with a only a few (broken) leaves - has been joined by a clivia, which is about to bloom in orange.

The way i see it, the house is never too green and are the stacks of plates are never too high...

doing the dishes

The kitchen table full of dishes, a beautiful sight!

The vintage serving cart in our kitchen is the perfect place to store the dishes.
Some of them we use daily, most of them we use very often, but some we hardly ever use.
Because the kitchen cart is open, every now and than the cart including stacks need to be cleaned.
Doing the dishes is not as much work as it might seem, thank goodness we have a dishwasher.

Everything is cleaned up and tidy and all the stacks are back on the cart again.
