Your princess is beautiful (I get cross at organized functions too).<br /><br />Sorry to hear about the recent tragedy in your life and allow me to offer my sincere condolences.<br /><br />I'll be checking out your new blog, but only after I've had dinner!<br /><br />Can we talk manure? I'm thinking of doing the same thing... but fresh manure will burn my existing plants, yes? Do you work it in and allow the field to rest. How long before you can plant?Prosperohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07114988815558549577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3135071957131268670.post-37564564253972935612009-11-29T23:30:11.611+00:002009-11-29T23:30:11.611+00:00Now how the heck did I miss this update, really cr...Now how the heck did I miss this update, really cross with myself.<br /><br />Like you my life has kept me so busy that I haven't had time to blog, garden, visit the plot or do any of the things that help keep me sane, so I know what you mean.<br /><br />Your little granddaughter is very cute. My niece was dedicated yesterday, we were able to watch and be part of the ceremony via skype (she lives with her mum and dad in New Jersey).<br /><br />And look at you starting a new recipe blog, I'm off to check it out and I'll be sure to add it to my blog following list, so I can stay up to date with the entries.<br /><br />Keep well, Kella.Kellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04007237364629419063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3135071957131268670.post-26135574848293411382009-11-29T22:27:38.880+00:002009-11-29T22:27:38.880+00:00Hi JO, thanks for the comment, your right there is...Hi JO, thanks for the comment, your right there isn't much to blog about in the winter if it's a gardening/allotment blog. I have decided to blog here and there though just to keep it going, I hope you will do the same as it's nice to know what else people are doing besides planting and growing.<br />I think that your daughter must have felt special being baptised at ten yrs and you very proud that she made that important decision.<br /><br />It was my husbands elderly cousin who died, bless her ! she was a lovely lady. She was quite theatrical and called everyone 'Lovely' or darling, she was well travelled, and very elegant and will be missed. <br /><br />I hope you will try some of the recipes on my new blog, only a couple at the moment but it will increase. Pam @ Hortensia tried the chickpea and pumpkin recipe and loved it.<br /> ..........................<br />Hi ANNA, thanks for the comments. Like you say time to plan next years crops which is exciting. <br />I want to grow less potatoes, as I am cutting down on carbs so not eating as many now. I want to grow Asparagus next year and have prepared one trench and waiting for a break in this terrible weather to dig and manure the second one. It's all very frustrating.Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15540591998909116816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3135071957131268670.post-37009251030496980452009-11-29T22:01:46.706+00:002009-11-29T22:01:46.706+00:00Wondered where you were Maureen.

I'm not bloggin...Nice to see you back, Maureen. I'm not blogging as often as I was in summer now either, there's just so much more to blog about on a gardening blog in summer than winter. Pam left me a comment letting me know that you have started a recipe blog, so I will be following that with interest. Florence looked like a little angel, you must be so proud. I'm glad that you enjoyed the day. My daughter was christened last year, she was 10 at the time. We had planned to have her christened when she was a baby but had to cancel the week before it was due to take place due to the death of my sister, and then one thing and another led us to not rescheduling until last year. We had a really lovely day though, and my daughter felt extra special as she was fully aware at the age of 10 of what was happening. So sorry too to hear of the funeral, my sincere condolences. It seems that when we are children we meet up with family members at weddings and as we get older we see them more and more at funerals, a sad way of the world.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3135071957131268670.post-42903887376002876402009-11-28T22:18:12.357+00:002009-11-28T22:18:12.357+00:00Hi PAM (Hortensia)It's good to get back, but m...Hi PAM (Hortensia)It's good to get back, but my mojo hasn't entirely returned, but as I said before if you have time away from blogging it does get difficult to start again. Same goes for the allotment, there was a dry sunny spell today albeit very cold, but I just couldn't muster up the interest to go up and dig that beastly asparagus trench. Ah well! it's not one of life's tragedies.Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15540591998909116816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3135071957131268670.post-35127290500789166182009-11-28T21:36:51.176+00:002009-11-28T21:36:51.176+00:00Of course you were missed! so pleased to see you b...Of course you were missed! so pleased to see you back. Those pesky mojos - they should learn to behave themselves.<br />It's turned so very cold here this weekend, but in some strange way, it's actually easier to get up to the allotment in this fresh weather, rather than the endles damp and wet.<br />Take care,<br />P xxPamhttp://www.hortensia.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3135071957131268670.post-75387267130050983082009-11-28T20:42:39.964+00:002009-11-28T20:42:39.964+00:00Hi Pam, thanks for visiting and the kind comments....Hi Pam, thanks for visiting and the kind comments. It has really taken me ages to get into posting again. I think that not having done anything in the garden or on the allotment makes it difficult, as the main reason for the blog was for the very purpose of documenting what I was doing, so I will just have to waffle about other things in my life !<br />I hope you are well now, and I will be over to visit your blog soon to see what you have been up to.

Also, my condolences on your loss. <br />Sorry the weather has been so awful in England. I'm glad my mom lives on high ground. <br />Congrats. on your new blog. I read on Jo's post that she is looking for a cookbook especially for allotment owners.
