My green fingers

Well, its a been a while since i worked. I really miss working. Apart from the money, I miss having to brainstorm for ideas and work alongside people. Not that i don't like staying at home. I like it oo but i hope to get a job to get my brain and ideas start cracking... or else the ideas i have for the home will cause Pa to tear his hair out! hehehehehehehe

Been trying to make the garden a little nice. Cos it was really ugly when we took over the house. It was full of weeds, barren soil, no grass at all! So we did a bit of work and bought some plants. Tomato, lavender, rosemary, chilli, cucumber. Some we bought young plants, others we cultivated the seeds. I love the idea of going to the garden to pick my own vegetables and fruits. I'm staring small and slow... but i have just harvested the first tomato which we grew from seeds! Kudos to us!!!!

The plants we bought


The baby that grew from seeds since Mar 2015

See? The garden was so pathetic.








Keeping the ground moist before mulch is added.







My lettuce grown from seeds.


I leave the more fragile plants indoors.



Bought this young plant from Woolies. It bore fruits after 2 mths i bought it.

Welcome to the family baby-bump! First few stages.
Took about another month for it to ripen. 2nd stage.

They ripened and I harvested. :)
