No one is saying anything in the korero this week? I was hoping to hear about your weekends, everyone!
I had a really weird/bad virus recently, turns out apparently it's going around the rohe's children. It mustn't have got the memo that I'm a grown up!
In garden news I only have 3 caterpillars but they are enjoying it, feijoas are crazy, there is an incursion of Morning Glory.
Spent a good chunk of my weekend catching up (online) with an old childhood friend, who I lost touch with over 15 years ago. We also played an old-school PC game (Diablo 2) that we played as kids - and it was so much fun. After that, we decided to make this a thing every weekend and revisit some of the old games we used to play back then and relive the good ol' days, back when the worst of our worries were trying to get get good grades... :)
On to the more mundane stuff, I'm happy to report that my spring onions are doing great. They've survived for nearly two months now, on just some water and liquid fertiliser, in spite of harvesting them regularly. I'm never going to buy spring onions from the market again!
Is this the edible variant, ie Ipomoea Aquatica (aka water spinach)?
Omg I remember Diablo! When Diablo 1 came out, my whole flat's social life went on pause until we'd finished it! It's cool that you're reconnecting with your friend.
Spring onions, mmmm.
Nope sadly it's just plain old indica. Neighbour seems to have a patch of it but I can't point the finger too hard since we are the ones who have tradescantia.
