Our Family Garden

Hi fellow bloggers – well the one blogger who reads my humble little effort! I missed you! I’ve been offline for a while thanks to the persistently crappy company T**s*ra. Formerly known as Telecom. (Isnt that a blast from the past!). Anyway I’m back for the time being to update on my garden. Now the tomato plants are as tall as my boobs; which is quite the achievement let me tell you! The peas still arent growing and some went a little yellow. I still think it was too much water? Zuchini is ok, although I think I spoke too soon in my last post about not having grasshoppers. Something thinks one particular plant is terribly delicious. The lettuce is gone too – I pulled it out as the tomato plants were shading them way too much and they just werent growing. Wasted space methinks so I up rooted the lot. The shallots are on their way out too because I keep eating them and they’re so scraggy I’m just going to cook up the lot. Instead, I’m thinking carrots or broccoli; not sure yet. The general news is everything seems pretty happy. The capsicum is also flowering as are the zuchini. I saw a brilliant recipie for Zuchini flowers stuffed with crab, lightly battered and fried. MMmmmmmm. It looked scrummmy! Hubby thinks its a waste of a good (potentially) zuchini. He loves them stir fried and cant bear the thought that we’d be less any zuchini just to eat the flowers.
Camera batteries are still dead (I’m embarrased to admit) because I havent charged them yet! Hopefully they’ll be done soon so I can brag about how big my tomato bushes are! Stay tuned!
