Plants and brownies

in #blog3 years ago

I might have started a little early...

To get my mind off of the wintery blues, I planted some seeds. I had my favorite tomatoes from the store and figured I'd grab some of their seeds and just start growing them now. We have a window sill that gets full sun, so it should be alright.

Well, on the right are my tomato plants! Doing very well indeed. Left is basil, fennel and at the back are a few bell pepper plants that are just starting to come alive.

It's nice to work on this, because it gives me a feeling spring is almost here. These last few days of sun and warmer weather have helped aswell. I do know I have to keep my tomatoes locked inside for a while still and heck, my vegetable garden isn't even ready yet, but that's okay.

Also, I made brownies yesterday! I used this recipe for the best vegan brownies and it's the very first time I used a chia seed egg. Very easy and handy!

I made a big brownie though. Luckily mum was there yesterday to help me eat some of it. I also stuffed some in the freezer and still have leftovers to eat for the next few days.

Such a tough life I lead!

We had fun yesterday, mum and I. Went for a walk in the sun, but did not feel very warm. There was sooo muuuuuch wind! We warmed up afterwards and had a nice lunch.

Today, hubby and I will do some grocery shopping. It'll be a fun one, guys and gals! It's meat and dairy free week here in the Netherlands and the shops are doing their part with lots of great prices on vegetarian and vegan products. So I'm going to buy a lot and stuff my freezer!

There's a vegan camembert I want to try and there's a new, vegan salmon I also want to give a go. Gotta stock up on my plant-based morning yoghurt and ofcourse get our favorite plant-based burgers and such for half price.

I think that's enough excitement for the weekend, so we have nothing else planned. Well... some garden work if the weather holds up.

The land of the porrones looks like it was fertilized because it looks black, if so, that type of land is very good for plants.

We just planted tomatoes today.
We planted Bulgarian peppers 3 weeks ago. Or 2?
Now I still need to hang special pink lamps to extend the duration of daylight for seedlings!

Plantation gives you relife and a vibe that is so soothing

The activity of planting -being in contact with nature- occupies the mind, in addition to filling it with energy. Greetings.

Those tomato plants are already big, soon you will have to plant them in the ground and make a framework for them to grow well and bear good fruit.

I really like brownies, there are people who put almonds in them and they give it a good flavor, good texture and they taste very good. Those tomato plants reminded me of ones I planted about a year ago, and I harvested about 6.61 lbs. It wasn't much, but it's satisfying to see the end result.
