Hi!! Gosh – what a wintery feeling day today! A heavy fog along with what Margie and Ruby would call – Mizzle! (Miserable drizzle)
Yesterday was a great day at the Deloraine Craft Fair! So many fabulously clever people showing their stuff! The whole town is the site and they provide buses to get from A to B to C etc
I had fun Christmas shopping (gotta start sometime I suppose) and even bought something for me!!
So, today we all had a slow start after such a long day, then went visiting cousins. I had organised to meet Leonie up at her parents place for a cuppa.
I just have to share Tas and Beths hothouse with you.
I really want one!
They built it quite a few seasons ago… actually I think it was just after I brought them up some fresh tomatoes mid to late winter!! Kinda impressed them so a hothouse was planned and made!
See why I want one?
Lettuce!!! So much lettuce!
Two rows of sturdy tomatoes!
They’ve totally got the jump on me when it comes to zucchini!
And I love the sunken walkway at the other end!
When it was built, trenches were dug along the sides and the plastic was run along the bottom, held down by lengths of 2×4, then filled in with dirt!
The steel droppers were put in and the polypipe over the top… then the plastic pulled over (double sided adhesive on the polypipe) and sunk into the ground on the other side.
Kitty not too sure about the noise my camera makes!!
Anyway, it was a really nice afternoon visiting!
Hope you had a great day too!
Cheers!
(I took my basket to my cousins filled with rhubarb and herbs, came home filled with lettuce!)
