Richard's Soya Burgers

A little bit of ground heave - Red Kuri Squash germinating

I popped to Lidl first thing, as I had a £5 voucher that I need to use within a week. Stupid me… I didn't activate it in my app so it wasn't used and I'll have to shop again later in the week, which was likely anyway.

It was a desk work work morning, and with Easter at the end of the week there were various social posts to ensure were scheduled for For Earth's Sake and its Easter opening hours.  Bank holidays also bring a change in the usual delivery pattern, so I spoke to Vanessa about that too.

We had Richard's rather delicious Soya Burgers for lunch - tasty and rather burger like, firmer in texture and really flavourfilled.  He did say he overdid the miso and yeast extract, though I still loved them!

Late afternoon, I popped to the plot and was delighted to see quite a bit of germination, including a few of the red kuri squash. I gave all the seedlings a good water, whilst everything outside was getting one too as it was raining pretty heavily; and yes, I got rather wet as I hadn't expected any heavy rain in the hour or so I was to be at the plot.

I hadn't intended to do a segment of A Week at the Plot today, though I ended up doing one about germination and the rain, though with a day at Vanessa tomorrow it will have to wait until Thursday before it hits Planet Vegetaria.
