Gone Potty?

Hi There!
Stampeding up to another weekend!
Was a bit overcast today but the threatening rain never happened. It wasn’t too cold though, so it was quite nice being outside.
I made a couple of mixes of my mushroom compost with the potting mix to get all the seeds planted.

I dragged one of my market stall tables into the hothouse, covered it in some plastic and started filling it up!
I now have three more types of tomatoes planted – Yellow, Beefsteak and a rainbow cherry mix. (The child in me thought that would be fun.)
Also: Cucumber, zucchini, eggplant, butternut pumpkin (new lot), regular pumpkin, melon and watermelon (because I am optimistic), basil, marjoram, cumin, land cress, capsicum (different variety to what I planted before)
I think thats all I can remember.
I also potted up the broccoli that Ruby dug up for me as well as a lot of strawberries!

Hoping these will be sold on the stall when I get it up and going again.
By then I needed a little stroll, so I jumped the back fence and took a few feed bags into the paddock to collect some kindling and pine cones.

oooo – check this out!

Potato!!! Yay!

Munching on fresh asparagus!!

This naughty chook!! She has worked out how to avoid Ugly Fort Knox and flies over the fence to strut around the yard. Three times I went back and opened the gate for her to go back where she was meant to be! (Love the way she knows she is up to no good and cluck clucks her way back in as pert as you please!!)
The final time I saw her, I grabbed the scissors, caught her and gave her a wing clipping!!
One down, 10 to go!!
Cheers!
