I was lucky enough to be given four Tumbler tomato plants to grow in hanging baskets by a friend.After watering them regularly they have now began to produce tomatoes. ;D

I hope it keeps on keeping on Denise, nothing like home grown tomatoes.

Your tomato seems to be fruiting well Denise.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Great plants CC.  I love home grown tomatoes they have much more taste than shop bought ones.

What a great idea having them in a hanging basket, I'm not good at staking.

Toms looks good CC.  ;D
Am going to start planting my seeds over the next few weeks, by the time all frosts pass they should be nice sized seedlings to plant outside in the veg patch!!  :)

Today have just been cleaning and moving furniture and getting ready for carpet cleaning (getting done now) and taken miss13mths for her 12mth check!  ;D She passed with flying colors, even tho she is unwell.  :) :( :)

Just dropping in quickly to say hi all I'm still alive and well.
  A little update on what's been happening
- I'm still working and loving it, I have been doing a lot of respite shifts with people with dementia which I find the disease horrible and cruel but really interesting at the same time so....
- I have just started a university course called a Bachelor in dementia care, I'm doing it part time and will probably take me 5 years to complete if I do the full Bachelor, or 2.5 years if I just do an Associate diploma in Dementia care (at this stage I'm not sure how far I will go)
- I have just recently separated from my husband so am now a sole parent, but all is good and I'm pretty independent and coping fine so don't worry :)
- my Thermomix has been sent off for a check up as I have been getting an error 31 and 52 on a regular basis, everything seems to be working fine but I thought I should send it off anyway. Hopefully I will have it back real soon.
- I'm still rebuilding my caravan and the frame is all repaired and Relined and bolted back on the chassis, I have a new floor and built a new double island bed and am now working on the bed side cupboards. Still a long way to go but  really enjoying it.
- I have now sold all my picture framing equipment so no longer doing that, I just don't have the time now unfortunately.
- other than that the family is all well (oh except my youngest daughter decided to fracture her foot on the first day back at school )

Hope everyone is well and still enjoying their thermomixes and cooking up a storm. I have had my thermomix for 3.5 years now and don't like not having it at the moment. Can't wait to have her back in my kitchen. :)
