Ok, the Tim Hortons cup must have been from your travels to Canada?
ReplyDeleteHaha from travels yes but not to Canada... I was toying with telling the story but since you asked! It was down in a place near Dublin, we were on our tour of every county in ireland to decide where we wanted to live. We stopped for tea (and internet) at a garage/cafe and the tea was £2.80!!! ($4.50!!!), and the service was terrible so I STOLE the cup!!!!!!!! shocking I know but was so funny at the time LOL
DeleteHey! What an amazing day it was!Hopefully we'll get more of the same today, I can't wait to get out into the garden today and revive the veggie patch :)
ReplyDeleteWell it's started off great :) someone told me it should be around till wednesday, I really hope so our garden needs a little heat kick! Hope your having fun in your veggie patch :)
Deleteaww. that's awesome. i wish we had space to start a little garden that Zoe could help me with. haha. these pictures are lovely!
ReplyDeleteThanks Mary :) Im sure Zoe would love that, maybe one day? You could always do a wee window sill pot for her if she's interested.
DeleteWe use all sorts of bits and bobs in the garden too - like your garlic protector : )
ReplyDeleteOh good! cos i know it looks a little crazy i'm glad we're not the only ones lol
DeleteWhat a beautiful spring day! I'm so glad you got to spend some time out in the fresh air and sunshine :-) Happy, happy spring!
ReplyDeleteIm so glad too! your gardening post have had me itching to go for months! it is very happy spring over here :)
DeleteYou seem to have been busy. Do you mind sharing how to grow garlic. Do you jus use the normal shop bought bulbs. Would love to know.
ReplyDeleteNo problem :)
ReplyDeleteWe just buy a bulb from the shop (if its sprouting in the cupboard already even better!) And just set it in about 1cm of water for a few days, rinse out and break the cloves off into single pieces, some will have little roots already, at this point you can plant them straight out but we put them back into the tub all standing up on thier ends next to each other until they all have roots, another day or two, then plant out leaving the tip showing, I also like to break the dry skin open at the top to make it easier for the shoot to come out.
That is just how we do it and it works for us, never quite like the shop bought in size or looks but they taste great and are no hassle to grow. I read that its the last few frosts that actually split the planted one into new cloves so if you plant late you'll just get one big solid clove - we did find that to be true but dont mind, tastes the same! Hope that helps :)
