Planted some more seedlings today so now I've got cauliflowers, broccoli, cabbages, zucchinis, french beans, tomatoes, rosemary and onions in the dirt garden now.

This was my second go at growing corn, the first was a total fail. Planted in a spot that got little direct sunlight and they never took off.

The weekend away was great, first time without our children. They're all teenager now with the oldest being 17, well and truly old enough to look after themselves for a couple of days.

Next thing to think about is what to plant next.
