Friends and Harvest

 

Yesterday was busy with planting lots of vegetable seedlings. There were lettuce, spinach, silver beet, beetroot and corn. I also planted a lot of marigolds to ward off pests. As the potato plants seemed to be rotting off I decided to harvest them and was amazed at how many I got from a 1 metre square of potato patch. The longest one on the right of the photo is about 6" (15 cm) long! I am about to start sorting them for storage and perhaps planting the tiny ones but not in the same patch.

On Wednesday night the playgroup mums had our regular dinner together. Here we all are - Anne, Betty, Evelyn and Elaine. We are all laughing because I was using the delayed timing on my camera, but we were also enjoying our evening together.
