I know I have been complaining that it is a cool damp summer here in Timaru, but the green houses and gardens are not complaining. This is todays haul.
3.5kg of tomatoes. And some of them are huge.
This was todays biggest. We've had larger!
I also pulled in a lone zucchini, I thought the plants were slowing down a little but I see a bunch more flowers about to appear. Another bowl of beans was picked today and the silver beets are finally coming to the party and I will have to start picking that soon too.
I'll be making a batch of something tomato related sometime very soon.
So aside from harvesting in my garden, what else have I been doing on my days off?
The mornings have been busy with chores but I did find time to cut some eye spy blocks this morning, I've added them to a growing pile, hopefully I'll have plenty to make a couple of quilts at some point this year. I had a wee tidy up and put the #10 box away for now. I have made a little progress on the project and will revisit it later in the year. At the moment I'm really not feeling the love for it. I've been busy with my crochet in the afternoons and evenings. Not exclusively, I've also done some preparation work for my Baradine swap and a couple of other secret squirrel items. While hunting for eye spy fabrics this morning I had a good tidy up in two of my drawers and put a bunch of smaller pieces into a bag for a lady who uses tiny scraps at club and I also had a look about for ideas about what to take along this month. I think probably my EPP, it needs some love and the ladies will possibly go into shock if I take anything else, they have gotten used to me sitting in the corner wearing two pairs of specs. LOL But that is for Saturday, back to work for three days first.
