LMS - they might be a bit on the exxy side, but i seen orange pumpkin seeds in big w yesterday - they were targeted at kids as "fun" food to grow, and had a halloween pumpkin on the packet! Jamie Durie brand (hence the thought they might be exxy!)

we need to get a couple of garden beds built very soon to plant the roses in so that we can reclaim the vegie patches for vegies. our plan this year is to grow spuds and onion as well - and we'll have garlic coming out our ears - we're going to underplant all the roses with garlic as it keeps aphids away! we have seeds from last year that we're going to plant in trays in the next month or so, and get ourselves some healthy seedlings before we plant as the animals around here like to help themselves... we have a mini greenhouse to play with so we can do things like this more easily

i'm keen to be able to make something from cauli and brocolli that isn't in a white sauce! anyone have a recipe using them to make anything inspiring?? i prefer to cook from scratch where i can but i do find i get lazy when i'm home by myself...
