Windowsill of Hope

We have embarked on a journey of what can only be described as hopefulness. It’s very small and some may see it as insignificant, but inspired by our lovely backside neighbours – both, like us with responsible jobs and busy full lives. They manage to tend their beautiful garden and produce wonderful flowers and herbs which they use abundantly in cooking. 

We have an equal sized garden to them, but never seem to get it underway – we just trim it and cut the grass –that’s it!

These chilli plants are the start of an adventure, they were downtrodden things in the reduced section, dripping leaves and looking sad.  Mark decided he could look after them, and so far on this sunny windowsill they are looking good.

What I’m hoping is to be able to make chilli salsa in the summer..this summer - 2011. Let’s hope!
