Chez Mike

I’ve been gocco-ing big carry bags and teeny ones too. I used the Gocco pen for this one and it kind of resulted in an irregular print, which I like a lot! I think I coloured in too hard and there was too much carbon on the original… but no matter, I like them like that! These are in the shop now to stow your purchases in. They are C.U.T.E! (And free with your purchase.)

Do you know, our sunflower seeds are sprouting after only 3 days – and we got a huge swag of seeds from Green Harvest in the mail today. I don’t know if you’ve ever received a seed catalogue, but the ones from Green Harvest and Eden Seeds are SO gorgeous and old fashioned and colourised and cool. You might like to get into this seed thing just to pore over the catalogues! I’ve been post-it noting the ones I like – and we’re aiming to have seedlings for purchase at Mike’s in the Spring! So you can grow the very same tomatoes we are growing (San Marzano, I think it will be!) amongst other green and delicious organic things!

I leave you with Lucky and Snoopy (renamed Kenny Rogers and Britney Spears as of last night). They are waiting for their dinner.
