Mum on a Mission

This new mum is on a mission…to lose weight, to be the best mum I can, to be creative and to be the best version of "ME" I can.

Mission : Vege Garden

February1

Apart from a few lettuce plants that I bought on special from Mitre 10 Mega about a month ago I haven’t done anything else towards this goal.

I started off creating my garden diary, dug out the few seed packets I had, saved some margarine and ice-cream containers to sow some seeds in and then my progress ground to a halt. Whenever I plan to weed the vege garden, when DH is home to watch DS, it rains.

What I plan on planting:

  • Broccolli
  • Capsicum
  • Carrots
  • Cauliflower
  • Lettuce
  • Pumpkin
  • Sweetcorn

These are things I know we will eat, I’m especially looking forward to growing my own pumpkin. I have visions of pumpkin pies, roast pumpkin and I have a dark chocolate and pumpkin muffin recipe I’m dying to try out.

But none of that is going to happen if I don’t get my A into G and weed the garden, is it? :)

    Hi Cheryl. Too hot & dry here to garden too so many of my seeds havent made into the ground either.

    I was hoping you could help me.. I’ve been trying to insert links into my blog.. like you did here with “garden diary”. I’ve googled it but just find techno talk & I cant figure out how to create a link. Is it a simple press of a button somewhere? :)

      Hi Jeanette,

      To insert links –

      Highlight the word/s that you want to use for the link
      Click on the little chain link icon in the toolbar
      Copy and paste the URL of the page you want to link to
      Target = whether you want it to open in the same window or open in a new window
      I don’t know whether you need to or not but I put the title as the same as the word/s that I’m using as the link.
      And that’s it – does that make sense? Hope it helps anyway :)

      I’ve been checking out the beautiful flowers – I love the pink & cream 2 tone rose!

Hi, I’m Cheryl and this blog is all about my missions in life.

Number 1 is to be the best mum I can to my little boy who was born in May 2010. My next priority is to lose weight which is what prompted me to start this blog in the first place. It’s  going to be a place for me to share with you on this journey. I love to be creative so will also be sharing my flashes of creativity in all things artsy and craftsy.

I’m not perfect so I will endeavour to be as honest as possible in my posts especially when it comes to any failures I will most likely have in my weight loss mission and in my new job as a Mum. The most important thing I need to remember is when I fall off the wagon that I get right back on again.
