It`s amazing how deformed some veggies get in the garden when the soil is not prepared properly. I have found that the tomatoes have not grown so well this year , due to lack of sun and maybe too much horse manure from the farm. There were a few small stones and coarse compost left in the carrot patch which caused a few unusual results.
The squash and Patipans are coming to an end as the leaves are getting mildew on and the wasps are starting to sting the fruits. We have had a good season of cucurbits this year, Squash, Patipans and Cucumbers.
We have started picking them smaller now before they get stung, but they still taste good with a meal.
We are overrun with frogs but that is usually a sign of a good garden. I`m very surprised that the loacal feral hasn`t caught one yet, she catches a lot of rats, but I don`t know if they are from my garden.
While taking a walk along the beach the other day I came across this. I wonder is it`s some budding psychopath practicing ?
There are a lot of these Spiders around but they are just common garden veriety, very flat and move fast.
If you look carefully it can be seen that the fly catcher is doing it`s job. All spiders have their job to do in the garden and very few are harmful to humans. This was also taken with a cellphone so it`s not very clear.
Just a Digest!

I was reading a blog by fletcher about making dog biscuits which was very good. This reminded me that our feral cat the other day meeowed up at me while I was eating a peanut butter sandwich, so I gave it a bit, which never touched sides and she eat half of it before walking away. That made me think , as well as fish or meat flavors maybe they should bring out a peanut butter flavor J This is the first feral cat that insists on drinking milk every day, probably her mother weaned her too young.
In with my herbs I have Echinacea growing and hoping to make some drops for the prevention of colds and flu. I`ve been using the flower heads like the Chamomile but the books say you can use the whole plant.
I took this I some ones garden with a keyring camera, I think the price of weed has gone up or maybe they like it pure. That`s if they know what it is !?$#@
Have a great weekend.
