Last day of the month

Easter weekend has been a bit of a washout but enjoyable nevertheless.  Friday - went to church for a brilliant service depicting many aspects of Holy Week leading up to the crucifiction.  Lots if great music, visuals and drama followed by Hot Cross Buns.

Saturday - rained all day so caught up on some recorded TV after shopping for the food.  Even managed to do some quilting (mainly practising my FMQ)

Sunday - more rain but eased by the time the family arrived for lunch.  Sun came out in the afternoon and it got quite warm.  Our lovely neighbours have given us 2 barrowloads of quality compost/veggie soil.  I think we'll be off to Bunnings tomorrow to buy seedlings for our large salad/veggie container.

What to choose?  carrots, lettuce, spinach, broccoli, spring onions, rasishes and parsley, leaving room for tomatoes and capsicums (and maybe an eggplant) in a couple of months.  All the other stuff I transplanted from overgrown pots last week seems to have survived.
