My Blog
This is very much a work in progress. One day I might even post something worth reading.
RSS FeedSometimes the stars align; a movie rec from @scalzi for "The Holiday", an unlimited pass to my local cinema and a one off showing tonight that fitted into my schedule. I enjoyed it - it is a fairly traditional rom-com, so it is surprising I'd never seen it before. My only disappointment, is that we didn't get to see the cow! Jude Law is such a cow-tease.
Woohoo! I've finally got my grubby paws on a copy of Nona the Ninth and shall put it right at the top of my unread book mountain ready to start reading next 😁🤤 #books
Done a spot of gardening this morning. I've repotted the lemon tree, rosemary and the last of the chilli seedlings that wasn't already in its forever pot. Watered/fed everything. Harvested the chillies that were ready. Neither variety that have fruited fully are the hot ones - Basket of Fire and Apache - both are around the 80k mark. Tried one of each and the BoF had some kick to it, but the Apache didn't.
I haven't been very good at posting here much have I? Oops. I guess it doesn't help that so many people didn't migrate over to here and have instead gone to a variety of other places. Or just shrugged at the horrors happening where they already are and continued on as normal.
Anyway, despite the TPK earlier in the year, I've now got back to a decent level of chilli plant growing - 7 happy looking plants, some of which have started to fruit. And so far, no sign of any aphids which is usually what kills off anything I've got growing. Also growing some strawberries which also seem to be doing OK - having never tried growing them before, I have no idea what to expect. I wonder if strawberries would make a good chilli sauce?
