Last night, the toddler came in with a lettuce leaf - she wanted to bring lettuce to the creche for her afternoon snack!! So we duly went out and I picked her a couple of nice leaves, and then went back in to get the tub to collect some for my own lunch today (which I had done the night before with the toddler just watching). I have to do the picking yet, as the lettuces are still small so its very selective pickings.

Then I went out and watered everything as it still hasn't rained here.

The plan for the weekend (assuming OH has time between correcting exam scripts and it doesn't rain) is to bring a bunch of tomato plants to the plot, dig over their space and plant them. Hopefully also sowing some sweetcorn seed direct, and possibly planting a couple of squashes and maybe squeezing in a few more calabrese plants somewhere. With a harvest of PSB and another cabbage or two (might call into my grandparents en route home with one).

The toddler already has her backpack packed for this outing - paper, crayons and a teddy to join her on the rug for a picnic!! She wouldn't finish breakfast this morning until it was packed
