After consulting a few old men from the village and of course double checking online, I think the weather is going to be OK. So next week we’ll start to plant something in the vegetable garden! A bit of fertilizer first ..then the last go with the cultivator and we’re ready. Green beans, onions, salads, and maybe I will try with some peas too, even if it is a bit too late for those. I love planting seeds and baby plants. Honestly I am a bit too obsessive about the accuracy of the lines in my garden …. Although there are some old men in the village who are even worse than me. They even use a wire to be more precise!!! Not me of course.
It ‘also true that I always try to start good… and then ..by August my vegetable garden looks like a jungle, tomato and cucumber leaves everywhere. So this year I’ll try to be less rigid at the start and more consistent at the end
Any way before gardening something more fun is going to happen: this Sunday Sagraincasa Supper Club opens up . Have you herd of these very good and trendy “underground restaurants “ that have started all around the world? We thought…why not have a go to.
A table for 8 people here in my house, where you can eat a drink to your heart’s content … … ..and… any way… I’ll explain everything next week, do not worry.
For now here’s another finger food, a Caprese revisited in solid form !!!!!!! You must excuse me, but after two month…I have a great desire to experiment. By the way it ‘s easy and delicious.
