Microgreens and champagne.

... not on the same day!

The last photo in my last blog was of the started microgreens. Started it on a Monday. Two days later the cover came off.




Starting Sunday was harvest time.


Lunch. I had to pinch one of the plantlings and could definately taste the broccoli. Learned though that you need to put on much more to get the taste when its mixed with other things.



The last few days have been pleasently cooler. Some of my flowers are not so nice looking any more but we still enjoy very much our back patio.


The parsley in the planter next to the mandevilla was being decimated. 


Yup, another parsley-eater. Since the parsley usually does not live through winter I didn't mind it. But no sign of it now and no chrysalis. Wonder what happened. 


Another visitor. Freddie showed his undersight on the outside of the glass-sliding door.


With mixed feelings we celebrated James' sister Kate and husband Dave's Golden Wedding Anniversary. The mixed feelings because we were supposed to be in England to do the celebrating there with them. We love our families. Second best: taking photos and doing FaceTime.






Wishing Kate and Dave many more happy years of wedding bliss and that we can spend vacation time together really soon!!!
