ENGLISH ASPARAGUS..

YIPPEE.. Foodle-the-doodle and other such exclamations of joy!

Dear Reader. There was LOTS and LOTS of Asparagus. Yeah, thieves had not been a'thieving. Little Shed unmolested, door intact, nothing stolen.. sigh, big relief.

'Sensation' Lilac jurst about to pop out of her buds.. go on-line and search for this variety of Lilac for 'she' is extremely beautiful.. late fruiting Apples blossoming.

The long hedge of Clematis Montana 'Mayleen' in full bloom, walking up path to garden SHE smelt glorious perfume and smiled.. For surely 'Mayleen' never fails, weather can be atrocious but come month of May, this Clematis struts her stuff!

Asparagus cut, wild Rocket, Chicory, Radicchicio, Red Chard, DandyLion, Lovage and Sorrel plus herbs picked, these wild leaves are vital for HER, they help create bile to digest HER food, as YOU get older your digestive juices get weaker or flow not at all, hence Hernias and other digestive problems.

Think about it.. if your food is not broken down properly by digestive enzymes.. what happens? How does it pass through stomach.. the answer is.. not very happily and VERY, very slowly. NOT good for your digestive system, bowels, colon etc... SHE eats Bitter Herbs as soon as they start to grow in garden, in winter SHE goes to HER lovely Herbalist to buy Tincture of Bitter Herbs.

Then SHE went on garden inspection walk.. WE are very sorry for people who have been flooded but rain has been good for OUR garden. All fruit trees look exceedingly happy, they were looking more than trifle dejected and sad after such dry winter with no snow.. snow is good for gardens, acts as slow release of water, the low temperatures kill bugs but WE had maybe only half an inch, if that, so garden was very happy to have wet April.

Roses looking good, SHE had done HER 'Severe Pruning Company's' technique on all bushes and they are in great shape.

Who are also in 'great shape' are HER most beloved Peonies! Ooooh, they look wonderful with each plant showing very good foliage growth and a magnificent amount of big fat buds..

SHE came home via North End Road Market, bought marinated Chicken breasts and Pomegranates. I hope WE have one to break our fast tomorrow morning, oooooh, I LURVE Pomegranate.

Then to Bank to collect new Card Reader, this gadget increases security when Banking On-Line. One more stop at Nepresso Store in Beauchamp Place, SHE has forgotten how to make HER Krupp Coffee machine steam and froth milk..and frothy, hot Goaty milk is favourite way to break fast first thing every morning and kind Leon is going to show HER how to make norty Mister Krupp work tomorrow morning, in meantime SHE uses Nespresso Frother but not as good or powerful as Mister Krupp.

HeeHeeeee, Debi-in-Sheffield has told HER such a silly Tale, it is a dream Debi had on Saturday. Apparently Debi, her much beloved man friend, HER and I were all on a ship going to America..

Now, that was jurst to get YOUR appetite going.. WE have to get all details from Debi before I can tell Tale.. apparently it is all wonderfully silly.. Hello, with combination of those Humans plus ME were YOU under false apprehension that it would be a 'sober' Tale?

I will return to amuse YOU tomorrow.. in meantime, read earlier Posts on MY Blog and do Fandango. Remember.. If you don't use it.. YOU will lose it!

GeeGee Parrot.
