Bestfriend, Bengay is thy name!
Filed in archive Around The Kitchen on July 31, 2006

No, no, no! The pain ointment has not suddenly come up with an edible line. It's just that I find myself with aches and pains all over after a day out preparing a garden for planting. Of course, a day wasn't enough - I think not even a month will be enough! I'm getting ahead of myself now.
With all this blogging I've become more adventurous in the Kitchen. There are probably hundreds of recipes I would love to experiment on. Lots of times though, I get frustrated at the unavailability of ingredients - whether there's totally nothing or I can't get the variety that I want. Sometimes I wish I had a farm at my disposal so I can plant whatever I want, like all those rootcrops that grow all year round but only seem to be in the marketplace a few months when I don't need them.
I've also been reading Kitchen Gardeners and Culiblog for quite a while now and I am green with envy when I read about their greens, hehehe! Later realised there's a small parcel of land I can utilise for the same purpose. And so there I was, pulling and digging my way towards a decent vegetable garden.
My first objective is to build a nursery for seedlings I'd be planting. It needs a lot of work and this weekend I need to get some lumber and chicken wire to secure my nursery otherwise the neighbours' free-range chickens will just feast on my precious seeds. And then I'll have to replant a few rootcrops I found growing wild all over the place - cassava, yams and sweet potatoes.
Am excited but right now I have to rest - and reach for that tube of Bengay.
