Salad , Proteins and Sufficiency

Today I started to catch up on my science vocabulary - also trying to recover some of my biology knowledge. Doing that while taking part in the wikipedia biology project, where I already wrote my first entry - on carrier proteins. It's tiny - but it's a start.
Garden work is another activity I tackled today. While everyone else in the whole of Germany and Sweden was watching 22 men competing for a ball - as if 2 werent enough -
I was ploughing through the sandy earth in our garden. It was remarkably silent no children screaming - no dog barking even, I wonder what they did to the dogs during the game - anyway this was interrupted by 2 major applauding , screaming and fireworks phases. During those I inwardly send my condolences to my swedish friends before I continued sowing "Lamb's Lettuce".
Later the family had the first self harvested salad of the year - needless to say it was extraordinary. Maybe a bit like the first potatoes to some Swedes.
With that we had "Frikandellen" or "Bulleten" how they are sometimes called which are somewhat similar to the swedish meatballs - just shaped differently.

The garden work really exhausted me - as you might have heard on the phone.
Just hope it is worth the effort - last time the of 50 seeds 10 plants budded.
