Small square garden

This is really my herb garden, but I've squeezed in all sorts in between....:o)

As you do, there is always room for something, I have a lot of veggies in tubs and when I was thinning out I couldn't throw away the ones I had left so I stuck them in the flower beds. :o))

Its the same old Owl Jacque......I read the other day though, to keep birds away, put an Owl ornament in your garden....:o(

Thanks Eileen....:o) Amy, ooh would you put the recipe on please....theres lots of Oregano in here and I never know what to do with it Lol!!

That's a good idea Bobg, Beetroot leaves and carrot tops are very attractive aren't they, and some flowers keep the aphids off your veg......I always thought Marigolds kept away greenfly and whitefly until I saw mine covered in them Lol!

Here it is Janey ' Greek Marinade '
Perfect for BBQ,s

Grated rind and juice of two lemons ( I use 4 tbsp out of a bottle for quickness )
4 tbsp Olive oil
2 cloves Garlic crushed ( 1 if you don,t want to much garlic )
1 tbsp freshly chopped Oregano ( I like 2 tbsp )
1 tbsp black peppercorns crushed
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp Paprika

Put the whole lot in a jamjar , shake to mix

Spoon over meat and leave for one hour before using

I hope you like it Janey , it,s a favourite here .....
