When I started my garden, I was going out everyday to check it. Then my babies started shooting through! I felt like I had pets or children or both! Is that a lite weird? I felt a great sense of acheivement when full blown plants were in front of my eyes (they just grow so quickly! Lucky they are rooted to the ground or I would be quite upset at them wanting to leave home). I actually went on Ebay and bought heaps of seeds. Really random stuff too - things I would probably never cook with like borage ( which flourished and died not log after). Apparently borage is really nice in salads if you can suck it up and eat the prickly bits according to my (and apparently Jamie Oliver's) herb guru Jekka. If you don't have one of her books you need to pick one up - so much stuff to learn about herbs it's insane! She has a brilliant recipe for lavender cookies - yes, lavender! Sounds odd i know, but they are amazingly good. I've cooked them a few times and tried making different desserts with them. but lavender is my obsession when it comes to herbs. I've tried making lavender and blueberry jam, lavender sugar, lavender martini (for someone else though! I hate martinis). This list if things you can do with lavender is huge! I've also done lemon balm cookies and they were delish! Not to mention adding rosemary to my White Christmas last year. Anywho, I think I'll finish up there with the herb talk or I'll be going all night! Kenmore Isn’t is super exciting though? When I started my garden, I was going out everyday to check it.

I believe poss off (hilarious name) and hooking up a sensor light near the vegies will both help scare away possums too. arghhh! possums- the bain of my garden’s existence.
