Happy Friday! This year I've decided to share a photo from our garden each Friday, rather than sticking to the little deer in his corner each week (although he will likely still make an occasional appearance), which will mean I can share some lovely things like this beauty of a tomato! This was the first tomato we picked from our bushes this year and I was pretty excited about it. We've had a couple more since and there are lots in the works - cherries and bigger ones like this - so I'm looking forward to lots of tomato-eating! There's nothing quite like the taste of a homegrown tomato.
I hope you've got something nice planned for your weekend! We've got a busy one, with a quick trip down to Dwellingup tonight, some more workshop preparation, and a swapmeet on Sunday! That's right, I must have forgotten quite how horrendous that 3.30am start was last time, because I've decided to sell at the Melville swapmeet again, this time with James in tow. We've gone through each room of our house and done a big clear out of a lot of stuff, so if you fancy a trip to Melville on your Sunday morning, come by and say hello!
With all the busy-ness in mind, I thought I'd ease myself into the weekend with a nice chilled out tune, Oh Girl by 70s soul group the Chi-Lites. I really love this song and was reminded of it the other day when it featured in an episode of The Sopranos (James and I are working our way through the series - so good!).
I hope you enjoy it...
Have a great weekend!
We are growing mortgage buster/ mortgage lifter tomatoes this year, and they are the yummiest tomatoes I've ever eaten! Totally recommend them for next year.
ReplyDeleteWe also grow Dwarf Red Figs, because they're the most prolific little tomatoes (the fruit, not the plant which is huge and rangy) I've ever grown.
Both are heirloom varieties.
Hi Clare,
DeleteThanks for the tips! They both sound amazing. I tried to grow an heirloom variety this year (I forget what it was called but it was a yellow one) but only a couple of my seeds came up and they didn't make it - I think I was a bit lazy with the watering! I'll definitely try those ones you've suggested next year :)
