Lately I've been checking up on my garden before I go to work and when I get home. At night I've been going outside with the torch to pluck those disgusting snails off my plants.

I've made some additions to my herb garden.

rocket from Mrs Pelle's garden
chives
coriander
horned mustard

I took some cuttings from the Thai basil plant we have growing in the garden. From all the articles I've read online, they say that when the plant begins to flower, it will stop producing leaves and the plant will soon die. So...I took lots of cuttings and will try to propogate them in seedling trays to transplant later.

I've also dug away a large part of our garden bordering the lawn that I had laid last year. I sectioned a small 'patch' off with bricks that were laying around and planted some seedlings I had bought from Bunnings.

spinach
beetroot

I went to my last art class tonight. We had a female nude model tonight - the same one we had a few weeks ago. I haven't had time to take photos of my pieces, but will upload them when I get the chance to.

** ART WORK TO BE UPLOADED HERE SOON **
