The wide shot, work in progress

The North Chef’s Garden is coming along nicely. In fact I am feeling quite proud of what we have accomplished in there. Let’s hope the produce sells! Lots more to be done yet though.

In the next few days we will plant 60 lavender plants, 60 thyme plants, 60 rosemary plants and 50 oregano plants.  I hope my chefs want herbs because I am growing them!

But at the moment all the plants are so tiny they are hard to see. Hard for you to see anyway and sometimes hard for me to see when I am hoeing. They will grow though and I will show you. This won’t be an ugly garden for long.


When I set Camera House up for the day I always take a test shot. This image is completely unframed, thoughtless, and unconsidered for anything but light, and then discarded. Above is yesterdays test shot. It is probably the most telling as far as ugly shots go.

Now I must away.

Work to be done.

I hope you have a glorious day. I really do.

  1. I also absolutely love that verandah shot: would love to sit comfortably in one of the chairs and be part of all that lush greenery. Love the look of your garden and so hope the compensation will be worth the effort! If ‘your’ chefs ‘do’ Mediterranean and Middle-Eastern cooking they will be jubilant about your choices – they also have the advantage of being pretty bug- and fungus-proof plants. Lavender is beautiful – but wonder who will be interested on such a scale . . . .

  2. “They will grow though and I will show you.” There’s that hope, that promise. It’s what we come back for. What we need. Now, thanks to the test shot,, we can gather on the veranda with you for a breather.
