Yummy, yummy Watermelon

Hi everyone,

Sweetie here,   have a look at today's harvest:

Look at the Watermelons! I love watermelon, it is my favourite. I am not allowed to eat a lot (or it hurts my tummy) a bunny with a sore tummy is not funny !!!! :o(   My Yollie promised to give me a taste and here it is:













It was sweet, crisp and very delicious. Daddy, Mummy, Patches and I had a ball.  We made a feast out of our special treat.  I made sure the chooks did not get any, they wouldn't know good food if it jumped up and bit them on the tail feather!  Have you seen them eat  !?!?! Disgusting!  I try to look away, but a little like a train wreck, you are drawn in.

Here are the seeds My Yollie has saved for next planting.

We also had a surprise visit from My Yollie's grandparents, Rosina and Lou today.  They are in their 455th years (their eighties in human years). We had a great time together. Lots of yummy gifts and lots and lots of laughs and catching up.  We don't get to see them very much these days, Grandpa Lou doesn't like driving long distances or at night and Grandma Rosina likes to be home to take good care of Grandpa Lou .  But today we were spoilt!!  They even tried to stay late enough for our dusk romp.   We delivered our best binkies, hops, races and flips for our delighted audience.  All in all a wonderful time was had by all! The sun even came out for a while to warm us up.

Take care, until next time, don't be shy to say Hi!

Cheeky Chooks!!!

Hi all it's Sweetie here,







Why is it that every time I think it is safe for a snooze in my burrow the chooks have to get up to mischief??? Have a look at what those cheeky chooks have done this time!!!! I don't know what I'm going to do with them!

Oh so naughty! Stealing tomatoes! My Yollie will not be happy.  

Who do you think is was? Let's see now, who looks guiltiest?

 Belle? Hmmm head down, worried stare? Maybe! Ariel hiding in the back ground doesn't look too worried......  who's next ....

Could it have been, "We hope she's a girl" ?  Standing up tall, head raised? 

Yep, Probably not then. Who's else is there? Willow, hiding behind "We hope she's a girl", not looking very promising.... But... wait a minute ...

 What's this, who's hiding under the umbrealla? Oh dear, not a good sign at all.
Is that you Pox trying to make a quick escape? Could it be?

Why Pox? Why did you do it??  You give yourself away every time! It's no use trying to look coy now! Let's hope My Yollie is in a good mood.

"Sorry Sweetie, I couldn't help it, they just look so yummy! Boy was I wrong. Let me give you a tip. Green tomatoes give you the runs!!!! I just learnt the hard way :o( I think next time I'll wait)."



Thanks everyone for helping my solve the mystery.  Good work.  Take care, Love Sweetie

Here's the giant! ...

As promised, here is the gigantic sunflower that can be seen from the next kingdom! (well from over the fence anyway) ;o)

And here are the three watermelons, 

And finally here are some updated pics of our Fairy Castle from the veggie patch! Boy have things changed in one season! :o)

Oh dear, I am not used to blogging in the day time, a bunny needs her beauty sleep you know! So, I think I will go back to my daytime nap now!! Till next time, take care  xox Sweetie ;o)

A quick catch up ....

Hi Everyone,
It's Sweetie here! I have been so busy of late. I need to apologise for neglecting my "blogging" duties.  It has been go, go, go around the castle farm.  We have been out pruning the weeds and helping cultivate the earth ready for the next lot of planting.  My Yollie has been frantically harvesting all sorts of goodies.  We love our extra tasty and fresh and crisp treats as reward for all our hard work around the garden.  My favourite is the little cucumbers, too small for the humans but oh so yummy for the bunny!!




 The Rock-melons have been fantastic, My Yollie picked 15 good sized ones this week and we got three undersized but still juicy and delicious specimens. It wont be long now till the watermelon will be picked. They look super juicy too!

Lastly I need to give a mention to the enormous Sunflower growing in the garden (we don't have a picture to post yet, but hopefully tomorrow I can get one).  It is gigantic. I can't even see the top! It is so big.  My Yollie tells me you can see it from over the fence when you drive past! It's even taller than her (not that she is very tall by human standards) and the mature nectarine tree !!  To think it just came up all by it's self from some of our discarded animal feed. Then with some magic from mother nature and hey presto, giant flower towering over all else in the veggie patch, amazing. Well till next time, happy autumn and  take care.  Sweetie xox.

A Milestone to Celebrate ...

Hi Everyone,
It's Sweetie here again.  My Kingdom has returned to normal. All is good in the land. The rodent has returned from whence it came!!! Ahhh, bliss!

I have some wonderful news to share with you all.  Guess what I found today! Go on guess.....  No? Okay well I'll just tell you.  It's very exciting....  Young Willow or "Will" as we like to call her,




her, just .....  I know the suspense is killing me too. Let me just get on with it ...  Now where was I?   Oh yes.  Young Will celebrated a huge milestone today.  She laid her first egg!!!  Yep, her very first goog!    She is so clever, we didn't hear a peep out of her.  And to think Patches kept telling us she was a he. How wrong can my brother be? Luckily for Will she is a SHE or you know how it goes for the boy chooks once they start crowing in suburban neighbourhoods.  Thank goodness we don't have to worry about all that. So long as we keep quiet, spayed or neutered, to our selves and out of trouble, we are fine, especially if we are luck enough to reside in a castle!  Okay your right, I am very happy at the moment and yes I have forgiven My Yollie. Now that everything has returned to normal, who can stay mad with such a loving and caring human? Well not I.  So until next time, take care Sweetie xox

Please forgive Miss Sweetie....(A message from Yollie)

 Hello,
I'ts Yollie here. I'm filling in for Sweetie.  Not that I really have a choice. As I am sure you have seen she is not happy and is currently hiding out in her burrow.  I thought I should do the right thing and introduce you to our little guest, also called Sweetie.

 All that sulking for nothing really.  This little girl is a pleasure to look after. She is no bother at all. The best bit is that she goes home in 2days.  I really don't know what my bunny is fussing over!

I would hardly call this little treasure anything but precious.  (Just keep it between us though) You have seen how my "baby" bunny gets with what she considers "competition".








That is about it from me, I'm not really very good at the blog writing thing. I'll leave that for Sweetie (bunny) when she comes out of hiding.
Take care, Yollie

Let me know when the rodent has left the building!

Hi, it's a "not very happy" Sweetie here,

I am not a very happy bunny at the moment.  Can you believe what My Yollie has done? She has opened her home to none other than a Guinea Pig!!! A rodent, like it's not bad enough we have to contend with mice but now a real life Guinea Pig.  To top it off it's name is also "Sweetie" so not only to I have to share my castle, but my name too!!!  Did I mention I'm not happy? :o( !!!!!!!!!  So just let me know when the "visitor" has gone!  I'll be in my burrow.  Until my kingdom returns to normal, Sweetie xx

Do you see me, in my burrow?  I'm behind Will

 Oh, I can't bear to look at her, and she has the same name as me!!!  Yep that's right I share my name with a rodent!

Has she gone yet?!?
