I cut one to see how ripe it is and it jsut oozed juice. not quite ripe enough. <br />
Oh, well, I hope they ripen soon because I can tell you, I do get some anxiety when I am not<br />
at home - what if someone steals them?!! I know it is just plain silly but I don't have many and<br />
they have to feed us all year. Off to make pumpkin soup. here is a great and easy recipe:<br />
Pumpkin soup<br />
Pumpkin cut up and put in pot<br />
water - a couple of cups<br />
stock cubes to like <br />
(or use chicken stock to replace water and stock cubes - a far better taste)<br />
simmer till you like taste<br />
I just use masher but you may like to blend<br />
pour in to bowls<br />
add dollop of cream (and give it the customery swirl of course)<br />
add herbs - eg. parsley or dill or basil<br />
Just DELICIOUS!! gets rave reviews from visitors.<br />

<span style="font-size: 130%;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Great news! you can <b>buy the flip for $30 off and free postage!!!</b> here is where to <a href="http://www.videopro.com.au/p-275-flip-video-flip-ultrahd-u2120b-black.aspx"><i><b>buy the Flip online in Australia</b></i></a>!! this is exciting because I had to wait a year for it to come to Australia.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">It is full summer here in Tasmania and I know that a lot of people have been having problems with snails.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">I have an amazing way to get rid of them. It is like a 'snail hotel'!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">I will put photos up next blog post.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">Today I will post a video of a little bit of my garden. Don't tell me you Can't <span style="font-size: large;"><b style="background-color: yellow;"><a href="http://www.videopro.com.au/p-275-flip-video-flip-ultrahd-u2120b-black.aspx">buy a Flip Ultra HD</a> or <a href="http://www.videopro.com.au/p-664-flip-minohd-4gb-f460b-black.aspx">Flip Mino Online</a> in Australia</b>.</span> You can, and I did. complete with warranty and all. I will put a link up so you can <a href="http://www.videopro.com.au/p-275-flip-video-flip-ultrahd-u2120b-black.aspx">check it out</a>. it is amazing - just point and click (the ultra has 2 hours of video but the mino is thinner in size) and took me five minutes to upload and put this on youtube and here.... amazingly easy. Enjoy...<object height="315" width="500"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/rCbKQKIW0no&hl=en_GB&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x234900&color2=0x4e9e00&border=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/rCbKQKIW0no&hl=en_GB&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x234900&color2=0x4e9e00&border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="400" height="285"></embed></object></span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">I had to be a way for seven weeks and that was before we knew for sure the frost was gone. The problem was, I needed those seeds inthe ground and planted and growing because byt the time I returned, it was going to be too late to get that first bit of summer planting underway. What to do?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">Well, I planted what I call an 'intensive' garden. I based it ont he indian tri-planting method. Apparently it was what the American Indians did. They planted corn, beans and squash together.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">I planted</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">beets</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">lettuce</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">corn</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">squash</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">peas</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">carrots</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">beans</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">all in the same two square metre plot - and came back to a flourishing garden!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">The weeds did not have a lot of chance. there were peas up and the whole htings just grew very well. I will post a video here of it for proof.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">I have spra;yed with seaweed twice in the whole of the ten or so weeks and the peas have been eaten and pulled out so you cans ee that the carrots are more grown.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">The only problem is that you would have to pull out small carrots to eat so that things can grow.</span></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4921534038081645927-2792616682922211791?l=seedsvegetable.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/SeedsVegetableFruitFlowers/~4/ZIBWi7ibbPI" height="1" width="1"/>natural snail killerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09235008263426432839noreply@blogger.com0http://seedsvegetable.blogspot.com/2010/01/summer-here-in-tasmania.html
