Hi all and welcome
My name is Louise and this is my attempt at getting to know the world or at least a segment of this wonderful world. I am a nursing sister who is now self-employed and working from home.
My life has been 47 years long thus far and full of many and varied experiences, not all of which I will share with you however and you should be glad about that too! These experiences both good and not so are what has made me the gal I am today....fun, positive, talkative, creative and loving and talkative.
My first loves are my hubby, children and dog, all of whom have helped create the me of today. My other loves are gardening, cooking, crafting, talking, soapmaking, talking, reading and more but you don't want me to go on forever and nor do I.....only kidding.....
Gardening is certainly my main love dominating any spare time I have at the moment and it is a new hobby of mine due to my personal "crack-down" on the wasting of bought fruit n veg in my household due to food "going off" too quickly, especially in our summer heat. The media has helped me deduce that this "quick death of fruit and veg" is due to excess storage of fresh fruit and veg in supermarket fridges only to have them wilt very quickly due to length of time in storage and temperature changes. I have wasted so much over the years and clearly as I grow older and possibly wiser, okay definitely wiser, I have decided to now growing my own!!!!! What a learning curve it is too and one I am really grasping with both hands and running with it with a huge smile on my face.

Due to the dominance of clay soil in our grounds and having made a number of sad attempts to grow tomatoes etc in my clay, my hubby and I have deduced after much reasearch that we can in fact produce a lot of vegetables in pots and so this is our adventure.....we are now totally potty!!! So join me in my diarising for you the progress we make as we walk down this potty path. I promise I will include photos to stop the boredom setting in and I have created a recipe blog too as I really love to cook and I would like to share some great recipes with you, many utilising what has come out of the garden. So sit back, relax and enjoy the journey with us........
