That really was going off on one!

BTW we are getting free bunches of parsnips at the moment - from our lottie neighbour but one :)

WV says shedi - sounds like the kind of ancient and noble order that Alex ought to belong to. Perhaps he does already.

I'm very partial to a good rant, aren't you, Emma?

It's not for nothing that I now have my other blog where I rant for Queen and country from time to time. ;-)

Well. She was quite right.

And . . . because I signed the petition for the Obamas to turn the Whitehouse lawn into a vegetable garden, I was sent a plan of its intended layout. (Not sure the lawn is being dug up for it. If they did that, they'd have to spend all their time running a market garden instead of the U.S.A..) Well, what struck me is how fond of lettuces they must be. Rather a heavy emphasis on lettuce production, it seems. I've been wondering what they'll live on in the winter.

By the way, I've mothballed Esther in the Garden and started Esther's Boring Garden Blog instead.
