Hope your day has been nothing short of wonderful..... and that you are now hitting the vino or the cookery books

Good morning Greying

Perhaps I should just clarify - I'm the meal planner, the vegetable peeler and the washer-upper, Mr MWC actually does most of the cooking :kisses3:

I'm also the baker and the preserver

And the gardener

And I'm always the toilet cleaner and the chicken mucker-outer

He would have to go round calling everyone "biatch".

:wave:

True dat (The Wire) but he used to work for the British Council and his accent is quite BBC don't you know? So "biatch" doesn't really roll off his tongue, hence why he can't really pull off the whole Jesse thing ... even though he and a neighbour (the one whose wife's family have horses) are always doing a "got any good s**t?" "Yes, but not here, let's go round the back" (gate) routine which they find hilarious!

Humbled by you energies in the garden MWC, need to give ours some TLC this weekend, weather permitting!

Happy menu planning too!

Karmacat

:D:D at the food ordering. I'd like some too, please

Am also in awe of your gardening skills - I was pleased enough with myself yesterday when I managed to use most of an 80 litre bag of bark chippings in one go

Yesterday's update:

Eggs IN 3
Eggs OUT 0

Plants IN 5 (Heliotrope marine plug plants)

Planting stuff in the raised beds - done (well 17/56 squares planted directly, seeds for another 15 squares were sown in the [STRIKE]greenhouse[/STRIKE] conservatory last weekend)
Power washing the conservatory roof - done
Finish tiding the garden - ongoing

Another spendy day yesterday - multi-purpose compost, pink fir apple seed potatoes and I treated myself (?!) to some plant supports for my herbaceous borders

Mr MWC excelled himself in the kitchen again - beef rendang

Morning, we'll be in the garden later, fingers crossed the rain holds ff.

Sounds like you had a good day. Raised bed planting is SO productive isn't it.


Best wishes Tilly x

I hope so Tilly - the squares seem awfully small though!!!
