Today I sat down with the Diggers catalogue for heirloom vegetable seeds. They have got seeds for parsley parsnips, which is the mullet haircut of vegetables: parsnip on the bottom and parsley on the top. No waste! That's what you want in a vegetable. They also offer radish watermelons, which are, sadly, simply radishes that are round like very small watermelons, not some sort of freaky half-radish, half-watermelon hybrid. Also, a yard-long cucumber, which is just slightly less than a yard more cucumber than I would ever want.
I have a sore spot on the side of my left calf, and I can feel a small bump coming up, which is a worry. I must have run into something and bruised it, although I can't remember what, which is also a worry. I mentioned it to my mother, thinking she would pop my hypochondriac bubble with some of her no-nonsense nursing skills, but she went into an unexpected panic. 'It might be a blood clot! Has your foot swollen up?'
So that wasn't very reassuring. Anyway, the lump is still sore, which I know because I keep poking it to see. Yep, still sore and lumpy.
Here is a bonus photo of the day: Melbourne's Southern Cross station, via a tilt-shift maker to make it look like Toytown.
