Progress not Perfection

They are a good buy.

Glad Mr SA likes his new bum bag by another name. 😂😂
You’d have been sorry if you’d have wfh today and had to go in the office tomorrow or Friday, so wise choice going in even though it was busy.

I got a L!dl rosemary: beautiful plant. I wanted one of the standard ones but they charge another £4 for those! However, I'm very happy with what I have. I reckoned I could try to grow a side shoot into a standard rosemary as there are plenty to spare and why pay the extra if I can have the fun of growing my own?

Didn't spot them on Monday. Might try Friday if weather ok, as its market day in town as well & I  can get cheap veg

Oh I need some new herbs for the garden. Might have to see if I can grab some as well.

Morning all, what a wet miserable morning it is here.

WFH today thanks goodness or I'd be soaked. Enjoyed my pre logging on hour of coffee, reading and Spanish lessons. 

It will be a NSD today, number 7 possibly or 8, lost count again!

Today's exercise will be taking the dog on the park if it ever stops raining, a lunchtime stretch & tone session and body conditioning tonight. 

Tonight's dinner is teriyaki tofu stir fry. 

Household tasks are giving the kitchen a good clean and sorting the freezers out (yet again!). I really must stop making 4 portions when I try new recipes especially when I need to defrost the little freezer that lives in the outside covered area, it's never going to happen at this rate!

Morning SA. The herbs look so healthy. Do you keep them inside or move them out when it’s warm? I have form for killing them (or them getting eaten by the cats) no matter what I do, so would love some tips so I can try again. 

Have a lovely day ✨

No idea 🤣 Ideally I'd like to keep them in the kitchen by the patio doors. I've been on the lookout for a narrow plantstand sort of thing but not had any success. Failing that they will probably go in the greenhouse at some stage as that's where I usually grow herbs although it would be a lot better if they were closer to the kitchen. I bought some troughs with legs last year and I've also been thinking about bringing one of them close to the kitchen and keep it just for herbs.

Basically I know nothing about gardening but I keep trying 😆

I will harden mine off over a couple of weeks or so - out in the daytime and indoors at night - then put it out full time once the frosts are over (not that we've had many this year). Mine's a rosemary so it should be hardy once it's got used to the out doors, and they can in theory last 30 years. Sadly my previous ones didn't!

Another one here who will be seeing if those herbs are in stock in our local store when I go in tomorrow. Ideally I'd like a sage, but I'd probably have one of the rosemary plants at that price as mine is looking a bit poorly at the moment. In fairness it's probably due a feed and some new compost in the top of the pot. 

It's been raining down here all morning too SA - just spitting so far, but I gather we're due a deluge from about 1pm!
