Vegetables...but no salad

A little while ago I took a drive to one of my favourite plant nurseries a little out of the city because I'm in the process of preparing for a new plant-out of my vegetable garden; despite having an idea on what will work and what I want to plant I like to review my options. It's a legit plant nursery, very large with indoor and outdoor areas, gift and homewares shops and a cafe that serves pretty good food and coffee. There's a lot to like and it seemed like a brilliant fucken idea to go there.

I gathered up my girl-person who was just as keen to go there and off we went...the plan was to get something to eat (it was lunch time) and then we'd get down to business. But...the fucken cafe was closed, allegedly due to staff shortages, which seemed odd. They can't get anyone to operate it? Ok, so I was officially annoyed as I had my stomach set on the Cajun spicy grilled chicken salad and...well, I got fuck all. Ok then, I shifted my mind into adapt and overcome mode - not really, I was still thinking about that salad I never got - and moved on to start browsing the plants and seeds.

Above is one section of the seed-wall which was slightly taller than I am (I'm 6 foot tall) and ran for about ten metres in length. It wasn't all vegetables of course, but that's where I was focused.

I did my due diligence reading the packages and determining what I wanted and what would work in the garden bed space I have available and slipped a few of those little packets into my hand basket plus took note of some others for down the track. We moved on to look at some other plants and nutrient options that we need and I made an extreme effort to dissuade myself from buying a fountain which I've wanted for a long time. I was successful and walked out fountainless but with my vegetable seeds and some assorted nutrients.

I'm currently working on the garden beds preparing them for planting and may do a post or two as things progress, or not, and yeah I'm over the fact I didn't get that legit salad, but only barely.

So what's up y'all, how's your garden going at the moment and if you don't have one just yet what do you reckon you'd plant in your vegetable garden if you did have one? Feel free to comment if you'd like.
