Corona virus and all

Well we have survived a week in isolation in our little 2 person bubble. It's all a bit strange not being able to do whatever you want but it is becoming the new normal quite quickly. I think it may be a good time for an outflow of creativity if only to beat the boredom.
The garden is now completely tomato-less, I pulled up the last one yesterday and still have a small pile of fruit on the outside table waiting to be eaten. I'ts actually a relief when it comes time to get rid of the plants, they look pretty bad in the end. I have planted a long line of radish seeds  as well as getting seeds of tasty stem broccoli and beetroot  and carrots under way. There are also a dozen carouby  pea seeds coming up soon I hope, these are great for winter planting and have lovely flattish peas once they get going.

A daily harvest

Our Jalapeno chili plants are really hitting full stride now and I have strung up 2 lots of the big fat hotties already with many more to come. The capsicums have also been great this year, near flawless large fruit. The beans have kept us supplied for a month or more, a good handful of tasty slender beans everyday, we have been doing our duty and steam some almost each day :)
