1)I dug out my heated propagator and planted petunias and impatiens (though if there were the advertised 50 seeds in the Petunia pack my name's Adelbert).

2)Many weedy grasses have died, and I have bark and ground cover fabric around the cherry tree and a path isolating the asparagus patch from the hedge. Fingers crossed for blossom this spring.

3) Pruned the raspberries - they don't seem very happy. Need to get on and give them a good mulch and maybe some bonemeal.

4) Some cat caught a young rabbit and only ate the head. Java then stole it and ate a front leg. Then Mollydog finished it. The cats were fine, but poor Mollydog was sick. No more furry food for you Mollydog!

5) Carrot, ginger and coconut is mmmmmmmm, and cheap to make in my Christmas juicer (well, the coconut was tinned).

6) Took some pretty good Mollydog zooming (and Polo paddling) pics on Whitsand Bay beach. The zooming pics were technically perfect so far as the camera setup went, but could have been better with another camera. It just doesn't focus quite right at high speeds.

7) Decided on new camera. Can't quite justify the Canon EOS 350D digital SLR, so I'm looking at the Panazonic FZ7, which is released in March. I really liked the look of the FZ5, but it doesn't have manual focus, which I'd like, but the F7 does have that, and more. Roll on March!

8) Lost my phone (through observing my NY resolution and taking it with me) Woe. Call Vodafone, block phone, begin to look at 1000s of phones, totally overwhelmed by confusion of choice and features, confusopoly reigns.

9) Thought 'sod it' and went out to garden, co-opting Polo to help carry huge bundles of bark. Polo found phone in garden! YAY!!! No need to make painful identifone decision.

Poor Molly, I think I'd be sick if I ate a rabbit that still had it's fur on. Then again, I wouldn't even try to eat a rabbit with it's fur still on...

Carrot, ginger & coconut does sound good, I must get round to digging out our juicer, we don't have the cheap supply of fruit & veg anyone though. Guess we'll have to wait until we can grow our own :-)

That was supposed to say 'anymore' not anyone. LJ is doing funny things at the moment, I'm sure I asked it to spell check and preview not post.

Carrots are just far too much hassle to grow for me: every time I've tried I've ended up with at best maybe three wizened forked things. Luckily the local greengrocer sells a carrierbag full for about £1-50 so *somebody* must be better at it than me...

I am glad to hear that raw rabbit with fur still on is beyond the limits of even your interest in culinary experimentation!

Raw rabbit I would eat (or at least try) - providing I knew it was fresh, I'd draw the line at sampling one a cat had previously had a go on. The fur would definitely make me sick though, it would tickle going down which would not be nice.
