Going Organic

Posted on 21/04/2009. Filed under: Organic Gardening | Tags: , , , |

Although I have enjoyed gardening for several years now, I have only recently become committed to organic gardening. It’s not that I didn’t like the idea or think it was worthwhile, it is only now that I’ve really started learning more about it.

I would prefer to spend much more time in the garden than I do now. My front and back yards don’t look too flash, but my vege patch does!

In the patch: capsicum, chilli, beans, corn, lettuce, beetroot, broccoli

 

 

I haven’t been using much in the way of pesticides on the vege patch and I haven’t had too much trouble with pests, but I have used Roundup and similar poisons to try to deal with the considerable grass problem. But no more. I’m going cold turkey.

Wish me luck!

My Mum used to say

Posted on 09/04/2009. Filed under: Blogging | Tags: , |

My Mum used to say I would sleep through an earthquake, and she was probably only half joking. But I woke up this morning before 3am with insomnia. But I’m putting it to good use. At least I think I am.

I am hoping a blog will help me tie all my different identities together. I don’t mean I have split personalities, just all the various personas I have out there in cyberspace, from a personal profile on facebook and my own website experiment at myvegepatch.com, to mostly business related tweets and updates on websites I work on professionally.

My work is in the real estate industry in Perth WA and I am passionate about both real estate and Perth. I enjoy gardening and growing vegetables, cooking, camping, diving and watching my hubby spearfishing.

I have become very interested in social media marketing and enjoy learning about the constant evolution of the internet.

Looking forward to learning more about blogging.
