Lunch for the girls today was a simple salad of tomato, feta, green leaf lettuce, thinly sliced shallots with olive oil and red wine vinegar, and grilled chicken.

In other news. I bought two tomato plants from J-Town the other day. They are about two feet high and should produce tasty Japanese cherry tomatoes, assuming I don't mess it up somehow. To make sure I don't, I spoke with my neighbour John who probably knows more about growing stuff that I ever will. He recommended I purchase manure - either sheep or cow to replant the little guys in. After that, just sunshine and water.
So, I went off to Loblaws to buy manure this morning. Three bags for $ 9 seemed a good deal, and John said it is the cheapest around. But the bill came to $ 10.17 including tax, which means your government is taxing manure.
And that, my dear friends, should tell you everything you need to know about government.
