Onions

I grew some onions in the vegetable patch.  I bought a punnet of seedlings and there seemed to be like 100s of seedlings in the punnet.  I actually got tired of planting them and with such little wispy plants couldn't see the need to plant it as far as I was instructed. However, I kinda followed the instructions - note I said 'kinda' and planted as many as my poor aching back allowed me to.

I was exited to see them grown really well though, even though the frost had a go at it as well they still soldiered on. I harvested the onions about 10 days ago.  I put them to dry and today I braided the strands so I can hang it up in my larder.

I thought it was going to be easy. Victor said to me, 'do you think you will be alright'? I scoffed.  Of course I will be alright ! I have always had long hair, always braided my hair, how hard can it be ? Wrong !

I did braid it, but I know I should have at least googled it, you tubed it, something at least because I am sure there must be another way.  The garlic and onion you see in the markets are all so neat.  Victor very politely said I will get better as I go along. Such a nice man !

Here is my effort for you to comment !
