Our Veggie Garden
At the beginning of March we planted our veggie garden again and it has just been great! We put in seedings of silverbeet, capsicum (peppers for you Canadians), and tomatoes and seeds of carrots, beans, lettuce and cucumbers and, as you can see from the pics, it didn't take long for them to take off and start producing fruit. The tomatoes were the most amazing. We have tried growing them twice before and nothing happened, but this time we have so many I can even give some to my family and neighbours! So, for the last couple of weeks all the stuff that goes on Rod's salad sandwiches to work every day have come out of our very own garden :-) It is very rewarding.

It's Monday
It's raining - YAY!!!
Olivia is sleeping - YAY to that too
I chopped all my hair off on Saturday...eeek!
Daylight saving is finished! It was dark at 7pm last night; weird!
It's wintry...I love it, I might head for my bed too. Olivia was awake at 5 this morning, snoozed for a bit till 6, didn't take her Dad's advice on going back to sleep, so got to go in bed with Mum till it was a sane time to get up (only b/c her Mum was sick of listening to her whinge and whine). So I'm feeling a bit sleepy...
Anyway, here's some pics from Saturday night. The van der Veen tribe had a BBQ at Paul and Heidi's place for Renee's b'day. (They might be put on one per day b/c the connection is soooo slow.)
