Sefton Green Gym
Today was a miserable day weather wise but not too cold, I still avoided the outside and instead planted all the spring onions in the polytunnel with Crissy. I also had a go at making a macrame plant pot hanger which is actually really simple and I think they look great especially with my 70's taste! I also took home with me some, spinach, potatoes (which were the first crop), parsley, mint and beet-root, the beet-root was from Rogers allotment, the rest from Green Gym. Paul caught a frog too, and of course let it go. Oh and the strawberries are growing but are green still and Helen picked her first asparagus. You can read more here on the Sefton Green Gym blog xxo
Window sill celery and new jug
I saw on Infusion fibers blog that she had re-grown some celery so I have decided to give it a go myself. In the university craft shop people can sell their work and the other day I bought a very small creamer which I think is lovely, I shall have to find out who the maker is xxo

mushrooms
I find it hard to find a smell that competes with the smell of garlic and mushrooms frying together x
