Over the weekend, we visited our Aunty Cath's magical garden, which is nestled away in Matakana. An abundance of hard work has gone into her back yard, which pretty much resembled a swamp when she moved there a few years ago.
We loved sitting in the sun picking apples and passionfruit and eating snowpeas and strawberries straight off the plants. Em thought she had struck gold when she found the passiontfruit vine, as 3 of them cost her $7.50 at the supermarket a few days before!
We also found this giant bean and immediately wanted to use it for something. A story was told of how Isaac's grandpa, every year, used to pick the biggest bean he could find in the garden, take out the beans and dry them on the window sill and use them for his next harvest. We have decided to do the same, so please stay tuned ...
