Living in a small country town everyone has an opinion, one I like listening to is the older people in towns opinions of the weather pattern. See, we are all of the told the weather patterns have changed blah blah but when you talk to the oldies 70+ they will tell you there have been times like this before and locals here are predicting more rain with floods in February. I guess time will tell, it will be interesting to see.
The rain brings with it issues of its own, we have so many of these little guys no sooner do we think we have collected them all when more fly in to take their place!
It seems we may have a fungi issue too?
Then there is all the grass and weeds that grow!! Look how high that grass is and the weeds in the garden beds isn't much better :( I started weeding it yesterday afternoon and did a little more today, the rabbits LOVE eating whatever I pull out....looks like they will be eating well for a while :)
Those HUGE tomato plants in the first garden we plant are finally doing something other than growing taller...look at these babies!! Can't wait till we start getting some tomato's nothing better than home grown, the store ones are so flavor less :( I LOVE tomato's can just eat them like apples YUM!!
The corn you could hardly
see last week have grown
about three times as big after
the rain!
We will have the first Zucchini any day now.....might make a nice quiche with it and our fresh eggs YUM!! Can't wait. There are lots of little ones growing and lots more flowers just starting. Quiche is great for lunch or dinner, hot or cold with salad. Is so cheap too when your eggs are laid fresh daily and you grow your own zucchini, we just add whatever else we have on hand. Its always a hit!!
