Vegtables
Laa-Laa and I made a vegtable garden this weekend. Well, thats not entirely true. We payed her teenage sons to dig and weed the plot (if you've got them, use them!) and then she and I went to the garden centre for her to choose what she wanted.
She now has in pride of place in her garden cabbages. Tomatoes, cherry and bigger ones. Runner beans. Carrots. Courgette and lettuces. Her middle son wanted a cuccumber plant, so we got that as well. It looks fantastic, and I have made the slightly rash and sweeping statement that she will always grow her own once she has tasted her own produce.
We had lots of rain during the night and the little seedlings and plants will have loved it. I cant wait to see how much they have grown next time I go and see Laa-Laa. The rest of her garden is looking so beautiful, pretty flowers and soft lines and all bursting with different colours shapes and textures.
I hope my next garden looks half as good as hers does now.

I want a little veg patch, have dug up a huge plant to make space. Just need to dig a bit.
Hopefully pesky kids won't vandalise. Am glad you had fun!
its well worth while doing...will make same sweeping statement to you that I did to Laa-Laa....you'll never go back to nasty unorganic perfectly formed veg after tasting your own produce!!
