How does your garden grow...

I can understand why gardeining is such a popular hobby, why people dedicate their lives to the persuit of a beautiful landscape, and why Bunning's must be making an absolute killing.

Today I worked hard, I sweated, I shoveled, I lifted and I raked. Now we have what almost resembles a garden that is loved. Tony pulled out a big ugly plant near the vegie patch, and replaced it with some roll on lawn. Not much lawn mind you as Bunnings only had 3 rolls left, but we though we'd start with that and see where that takes us. It's just enough lawn to have a picnic for two.

I whiper snipered the weeds, so it almost kind looks like a rough lawn. Also I planted some seeds for the first time ever. I've always though seeds were probably more trouble that they are worth, but after spending about $3 a punnet on carrot seedings only to get 4 carrots, seeds seemed a bit more sensible, and a real way of saving money on vegies.

So now I'm about to have dinner, and enjoy what will feel like a deserved hearty meal.
