Katy and I spent a very productive day finally clearing out the last of the stuff in boxes and putting up decorations. Did a massive cleanup of the place too, as well as doing a gajillion loads of laundry. We didn't go outside at all today, but unfortunately, outside came to us. We seem to have a minor ant problem. We’ve been seeing them once in a while now, but today was the worst – Katy found one walking on her arm while we were watching a movie – not fun! We're going to go to B&Q tomorrow to get some ant traps and call the landlady to complain.
Enjoy the pics and tell me what you think.
And I'm stupidly proud of my Zen garden.
I am.
Edit: what people might not realize at first glance is that the rocks come from: Alcatraz, the Oratoire St-Joseph, l'Ange-Gardien and New Orleans. Oh, and the turtle's from Fiji.
two of the links don't appear to work, but the rest of the pictures look really nice…
oh, and the kitchen island made me chuckle… ;D

because i seem to remember the saga of its acquisition – or was that something else?

You should send me your address. I just realized that Boulder might be a place that you don't have a fridge magnet from. If I can find one worthy of your fridge… I will have to get it for you…
Nice place… and kick ass zen garden!

Cute , crowdy and functionnal.
Ants Invasion. Are u built on sandy ground? They love this stuff.
Ants traps where they travel should get rid of them, eventually. Check sweeties and cereal boxes as they may wander in there. Your zen garden could be a potential nesting area. Not dangerous nor toxic, just a source of proteins and annoyance. Will go over and spend a month some day. Then you'll wish u had the ants instead. Bye.

don't diss the zen garden. Not to say that I don't appreciate the advice, but you do tend to state the obvious my dear :P

Coooool!!! But, where's the chinese food box???
Your zen garden is really cool, your are very handy. “If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy” :P
I like your Gaston Lagaffe fridge magnet :-)
