gardening – before & after

I do like it when, in doing housework or gardening, I can see where I’ve been. Last weekend, I weeded until my legs went wobbly, and you could *definitely* see where I’d been.

Rescuing beans…

and after…

And this is the same area I showed you a week or so ago, before…

lost lettuces

and after…

a weeded vegetable patch

I know it’s not perfect, and there are a lot fo weeds there still, but the big ones and the carpet effect have at least gone… plus the ones that mum identified as probably deadly nightshade – not a good idea to have something which has poisonous berries growing in a vegatable plot the kids generally graze on.

And yes, we can expect to see this repeated later in the month when I yet again remember I have a vegetable patch that needs weeding!
