Well thats me bag packed with all the stuff for the Craft and Produce Show, and the jam jars (nicely decorated with napkins) sitting in the kitchen awaiting the cutting of the nasturtiums, pansies (I forgot about those!) and my four annuals in the morning. Gale force winds forecast again tomorrow so I'll need to get out and cut them early.
Had a quick squint at the beans, but nothing of a uniform length in the runners and the french beans are growing really curly again. The outside peas look like they've been devastated by some deadly disease and the strawberries sadly finished. Onions, green as anything, so no hope of dressing them and my cabbages are so big and blousy I can't think there would be a table big enough for them! Leeks still like pencils (and they want three) and no other budding vegetable at a decent size to pick. My potatoes are WONDERFUL, but theres no class for potatoes
Och well, I'll try the produce section another time.
Boy its hard work this show stuff. How did you manage to bake four cakes Hazel!
This is my first event at showing, so I will undoubtedly learn masses. Normally for me "showtime" means a musical or panto on the stage, but I don't think I'll win any prizes tomorrow by going in singing "There's no business, like show business!
