Gifts that keep giving

I've just received the most wonderful gift from a new to gardening person (you know who you are). A packet of purple haze carrots seeds. I haven't planted any carrots this season and I have the most perfect spot - where my rocket has just gone to seed. My kids love eating them and it's something a bit interesting. They are, I understand, incredibly healthy with loads of anti oxidants. So, into the garden I go to pop them in - time in the garden is a gift in itself. So thanks! Happy gardening :).

Btw my daughter received a gardening kit today - her own little trowels and diggers in a bag with a watering can. We've just spent the most delightful afternoon together in the garden. A gift that keeps giving - indeed!
