I'm a little ashamed to keep putting up blog posts as most of what I have to blog about is just the state of the garden (which, with a little weeding and a little watering is mostly taking care of itself).
L. and I haven't done too much on the house lately - we've been busy sporting, socialising, and, in my case, sewing.
This is my latest work in progress (for a friend who hopefully doesn't read here).
I still haven't decided how I want to finish the edges off (so, friend of mine who is expecting a little one soon and likes this type of fabric and tea - if you are reading this, do let me know your preference :) ).
And now, back to the usual garden report.
Most of the suspicious 'weeds' have proven their worth by producing some lovely flowers.
The tiny seedling tomatoes that the parents kindly gave us in May have turned into water-sucking monsters.
And the peppers have taken off too -- though still no fruit from either.
Lukas harvested the first of the beetroots today.
A few more lovely-and-fiery radishes have been eaten.
And the courgettes....oh, the courgettes! I love courgettes normally, but I'm a little worried I won't be able to appreciate grocery store courgettes now that I've tasted truly fresh courgettes.
From vine....
to documentation.....
...to dinner in under half an hour. Oh, the deliciousness!
We'll have to wait a bit longer for the pumpkins, though they certainly are coming on nicely.
