Epic Greetings Furbulous Furiends

Welcome to the BBHQ midweek news round-up!

Let's start with the weather report. Purrsday and Friday were overcast; nothing much to report at all. Caturday was nice and sunny, but it was a bit misty on Sunday, though the temperature was still nice. Monday was a drizzle-fest of disappointment. Tuesday, we haven't got there yet... MOL The Tuesday update, overcast, but ok temperature-wise, so there could be some bulb planting today.

As we're heading straight into Halloween territory, we're rerunning all the spooky Crafting with Cats projects, sadly, there's no new project for this year; in fact we've been severely failing on new stuff there, but there is a reason and that is there is no space to make anything as there's a bit reorganisation happening in the craft room, and it's taking it's time! MOL

Oh, and here's another moon picture from early on Sunday Morning, about 3:27 am.

Nighttime view of the BBHQ garden under moonlight, featuring a stone pathway framed by plants, trees, and a metal archway. A glowing light fixture adds warmth to the scene, while the moon shines brightly above with a faint halo, creating a serene and mystical atmosphere. Perfect for garden photography, tranquil outdoor settings, and seasonal storytelling from www.bionicbasil.com’s BBHQ Midweek News Round-Up

And we have a 'lime' update...

The fruit, possibly a lime or unripe lemon, is part of a personal cultivation setup featuring a wooden surface and decorative crystal. Perfect for indoor gardening inspiration, citrus plant care, and quirky garden updates from www.bionicbasil.com’s BBHQ Midweek News Round-Up

It's still growing, very slowly, but it's definitely bigger than it was in our last update.

We're not sure how long they take to grow, but we'll keep it where it is for now. Also, the other little fruits are gaining size. Unfortunately, the P.A. accidentally knocked one off when she was cleaning up some of the fallen leaves. Yes, we did reprimand her for such a heinous assault against an innocent citrus tree! MOL

There will be a trial by citrus sometime soon to address this! 

Anyhoo, let's look at this week's top headlines.

As we're rerunning all our epic Halloween Crafts, Fudge wanted to show mew what he was playing with yesterday! MOL

Yep, it's a furry, orange, feathery-topped pumpkin on a wand, and of course, we'll be sharing this fun project again in the next couple of weeks.

A bit of a fuzzy photo of Smooch on Caturday as he was about to pawtrol the garden... the P.A. used a bit too much zoom, me thinks! MOL
