I just had to share this hillarious photo of my carrots. I've never 'done' vegetable gardening before - this is my first attempt. My dh says they look like something out of a science-fiction movie!!
I've planted my second and third rows of carrots, and made sure that this time I really worked our clay/sand soil over well before I planted the seed. Hopefully, the second lot will look better. They still smell good though!
The carrots have personality though! :)
I am glad that the fires are under control and no one has been hurt.
I love your blog, by the way, and Roger Scarecrow is cute, too. Sorry he lost his boots!
Have a great day!
Sincerely,
Sharon

Some of mine did that too! They still taste okay, but they are hard to clean and peel. Better luck with the next rows. I hope to get my soil worked better and deeper this year also.

Welcome to my blog. I'm glad you dropped in. I'm a wife and mum to 3 children. We are blessed to live in the beautiful South Sea islands of New Zealand, and I love to write about our life and the things we do on our homestead of 10 acres, our adventures with animals and homeschooling, and the little things that touch my life and those around me. I hope you'll enjoy visiting.
