Shaping up to be a really busy year!! This is a good year for original fic. I can feel it.

Also, the weather this year is terrible for the garden. At least in Melbourne anyway. I have zero fruit on my trees except the apples.

I have lost nearly all my fruit this year to fruit flies. I'm seriously considering spraying next year. :(

Also, I'm starting to think I should never have planted the 'warrigal greens' those things go BESERK and are chewing up all my groundspace in their desperate bid to take over the garden...

Thank goodness fruit flies haven't made their way down here as yet. It's painful to see the potential for fruit and then come out one morning and it's all gone.

Ha! I tried to grow Warragul greens last year and for some reason failed miserably! But I have the same problem with amaranth and purslane.

These are beautifully organised. *is in awe*

These make me so happy. I wish you all kinds of luck and success with them.

I love the psalms! I once was part of a group who met to read them and talk about them and see what came of them, one a week for - close on three years, obviously. :) It was a very valuable exercise.
