Finally! The weather has chosen to be more seasonal this week. I have been going on walks at lunchtime as I always feel in a better mood after. This afternoon all 4 of us got stuck into some gardening. Earlier K and I had decided that some big planters would go nicely under the kitchen window. They're big enough for me to put carrots, lettuce and peppers into. The carrots and lettuce are sewn directly into the planters. The peppers are in seed trays in the house - in my new plastic mini-greenhouse. It's too cold at night to put them outside.
Speaking of the mini-greenhouse (which K managed to put together pretty much single-handedly today), the kids planted broccoli, tomatoes and French marigolds earlier this week, along with the peppers. The broccoli are already through.
I'll probably have too many plants so if anyone locally has too many of their plantings and would like to swap form an orderly queue - otherwise known as LET ME KNOW.
And to round off a lovely day A got the BBQ out to cook tea on. Mmmmmmmmm. Did I ever tell you how much I love that man.
