Such a gross fib.. totally untrue BUT it made for a great title! HeeHeeHee..
SHE has been out on hunt for things with which to finish off HER preserving.. but forgot Bay Leaves.. so cannot do Beets and Onions, never mind, SHE has got to go tomorrow to get fruit for a friend so, hopefully, SHE will remember them then.
SHE got drenched this morning, ole Mister Rain came down in torrents when SHE got off bus.. whoooosh, it came with gusts of sneaky wind to blow umbrellas inside out! SHE jurst smiled like some ole fool and thought about how happy the garden must be drinking up rain and ground becoming even softer to work.. ready for planting.. Garlic, Potatoes and Onions (red and white and yellow).
SHE will be ordering 'bare rooted' Autumn fruiting Raspberries for delivery in November, trick is NOT to plant them too deep.. too deep and they don't fruit. Jurst like HER beloved Peonies, which don't like to be any further down than a half an inch.. YOU would think that would be too shallow and that their toes would get cold but no.. they like their toes to be frozen... silly things!
Autumn Bliss, Joan J and a Yellow variety, who name has escaped us, are the ones SHE will plant.. they are so easy to grow and birds don't go for them so they don't have to be netted in any way.
I know.. SHE could find out name of Yellow variety from Charles and Milly, they grow Raspberries up a mountain in Welsh Wales, they will know best variety to grow and from where SHE should get the plants.
Very dark and a little depressing, it is, afterall, still August and officially SUMMER.. "Hello, are YOU listening to ME up there... it is still Summer, what is with this autumnal weather?"... WE have lights on.. bit of a shame as it is only jurst before five of clock in afternoon.. but SHE noticed yesterday at garden, sun is already much lower in sky.. SHE is hoping to build a greenhouse, but not a nomally shaped one, SHE saw one with much longer side to it, to allow for lower sun.. made by a very well renowned gardener up in the state of Maine.
SHE has to find his book and work out dimensions and HOPES that The Wizard, aka Rob Leary, will re-appear at some stage before next Spring to help HER build it.
But now is here and SHE has two enormous piles of brightly coloured Peppers to slice and roast.. so off to YumYum HQ WE go.. I know what is for supper.. I'll tell YOU later.. when I have had some.
GeeGee Parrot.
