Hello Dear readers.. Good morning.. good evening.. it all depends on where YOU are.. a lot of YOU are in Latvia it seems.. lots of Latvians reading MY Blog these days.
So much to do.. got to dig up those Onions who have decided it is time to come out of the ground.. YOU may well say "so early?" but these babies have been a'growin since October!
They sailed through that bitterly cold winter and wet spring with nary a worry in their heads and as SHE scratched and scritched between them to keep the soil loose, they have mostly grown to be a good size.
Some will be cured, this means YOU dry them off so they last the winter, SHE plaits them and they stay at the shack where it is dry and quite dark.
Some.. as YOU read in the post from last night.. get eaten immediately.. there is nothing like a young, fresh from the ground Onion.. sweated with some garlic and maybe a tiny Beanie-o.. very tasty!
YOU do have to laugh at old weed.. he thought he was being so clever as to invade that big Lettuce and Rocket bed.. he thought being green would be enough to fool HER.. silly weed. He forgot that Lettuce and Rocket have very easily defined leaves.. and are of a very different green.
So he is heading for rubbish pile today and in his place will be lines of Radishes.. the small round ones and the longer variety. Crunchy munchy, I love a crisp Radish.
SHE has to do scritch and scratch amongst the
Fruit bushes, has to wear thick gloves for this and to be very careful when SHE bends over.. for although they are 'bagged' up in the nylon.. old Goosegogs aka Gooseberry, can still give the odd nip with one of his spiny spines.
Talk about Spiny.. guess what WE are having to break our fast? Go on.. have a guess, for I have given YOU a mighty clue!
SpinyApple is back on OUR menu again. Hurray, slurp-the-durp, how WE lurve this fruit!
There is another clue.. it is a fruit.. No, still no idea what it is.. well.. it is Pineapple.. rich, smelly, fruity-tootie pineapple. And a soft but hard boiled egg, hard boiled but soft.. delicious.
So off I must go.. flap flap.. vertical take-off as was lolling on bed..
GeeGee Parrot.
