Weekly winners from my garden

Sunday, September 20, 2009 Posted in Uncategorized

My cooking yesterday morning inspired me to get to the nursery and buy more herb plants to fill my kitchen garden.  And of course, I couldn’t just buy herbs once I got there! This all meant that I spent time in my garden yesterday, and had to get my camera out too!

New herbs for my garden

Tamara suggested I get some indigenous osteopermums for my garden, and I do actually have the plain ones already, but when I noticed these petal-spoon ones on special at the nursery, I just had to get some to add more purple to my garden.

And look what I noticed buzzing around my Felicia’s… check out the full pollen sacks on his legs!

I don't feel very inspired to do Weekly Winners but I shall have a go - feel drained after this week. The W family are doing fine - councelling has helped a lot. E, B and I went yesterday and stayed till late - traumatised but thankful they were not physically hurt.... we drank wine and celebrated life!
