Broccoli!!


The garden kind of went to sleep for a while there when there was no rain, even watering it twice a day it wasn't the same as when it rained for 15 minutes and then the garden just bloomed! amazing. 

This is me modelling the latest look from the garden :) it was quite yum and tasted so fresh of course :)




Before we picked it, so cool



Slow growing beans and beetroot and pumpkin down the end, was hoping there would be vines by now



My awesome potato plants, they have really grown, and I planted four potato's out of my pantry and they have all grown!! wohooo



Corn!!


A huge batch of green tomatoes, waiting waiting waiting....


 bulging beans :)


My capsicum plants, they are flowering and about to give me well capsicums :)


He really loves broccoli :) really :)




Carrots, baby ones and we put them in our casserole and they were yum

 Showing off :)



 Anddddd I forgot to tell you that Sam and I on our walk a few weeks ago rescued a possum and her baby, she had no movement in her back legs and was just laying on the floor just off the path where we walk along the river. Her baby was wrapped around her neck and the horrible magpies were swooping and hitting her in the head, it was so horrible. We noticed that there was a canvas chair that had been left near the river and so we ran over and put it over the possum so that the birds couldn't hit it and hurt the baby. Then once we were home we rung RSPCA and the local carer came and rescued her.
Then today on our walk, coming down a tree was a big koala, and he was being chased by the magpies again!! We could hear them as they hit him on the head poor thing, so we ran around them with sticks trying to scare the birds off and the koala ran to another tree and climbed up it, but it wasn't one he could eat from so he went back down again and the birds went for him again. I had grabbed a banana tree branch and I was waving that and it kept breaking :) so then Sam started throwing rocks at the birds, one didn't even move:) we were obviously not very scary. The koala finally went as high as he could get on a tree and the birds just circled him. But it was so cool to see a koala that close and watch him run across the ground and climb up a tree. Very cool.

School holidays started tonight, so I think tiredness is going to be my state of mind for the next few weeks :) Must be positive :) Japan here I come.
