I forgot about silver beet but maybe it's a winter vege? I'm a bit rusty with what gets planted when.<br /><br />Almost French is funny, great story and her sense of humour really appealed, not to mention the whole Paris setting lol.

My garden is dug over, but still a bit chilly to plant up. In fact was so cold not even the silver beet grew over the winter.<br /><br />Have put Almost French into my wishlist at Audible. Have ordered Coincidence of Coconut Cake from Book Dep! I have never read Kate Morton but maybe I should try her, I have The Shifting Fog on my shelf that I got from Book Fair last year.<br /><br />All the best for the review intervention!<br /><br />Kathryn Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08964951326616144323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6416388930682401137.post-1976545514602723432015-09-28T03:21:39.511+10:002015-09-28T03:21:39.511+10:00The one thing I don't like about the change of...The one thing I don't like about the change of seasons is it's so easy to get sick, seems like. I sometimes get a cold in the fall or springs when the temp changes. Hope you feel better! Fresh vegetables are the best- once I got used to tomatoes from the garden, it was very hard to buy store bought!<br /><br />I'll have to check out your post on Pooh as that's a favorite and it still blows my mind that would be banned.

I grew up in the country so my parents always had a big garden. They've scaled back somewhat in recent years but still always share their produce with me. Zucchini is a favorite :)<br /><br />Hope you get caught up on your reviews and reading.
