A tomatillo is somewhat like a green tomato. I use them in cooking for their more tart flavour. They seem to grow well outside here in the midlands Uk (I start them like tomatoes, seeding in the house then into the greenhouse before finally potting on for outside) and seem slightly more resistant to bad weather and pests than tomatoes (but beware of earwigs hiding in the husks lol). Another point about them is that I have never seen them in the supermarkets although they may be available online but few people know about them. I order the seeds online. They are not particularly expensive. Worth a try for anyone wanting something different.

My plans for the day is to practice my mathematics and cook dinner. I shall be starting dinner at around 2:45pm. It takes a fair while to prepare - and to actually cook - hence why I'm starting so early!

I got the cleaning done. Two loads of laundry, hoovering, dusting... and so on.
I am also working at the computer. My maths is going well. I am definitely enjoying being challenged mentally. Numbers are fun, too. There is a lot to learn: but I am happy to do so.
I also am in love with English Literature. I always read novels borrowed from my local library. I am addicted to reading. And have been reading forever.
Well, we are looking for a new architect for the second phase of our house. My husband prefers the one who originally designed the first phase of our house but the contractor thinks she costs too much, they already took our money so now they try to save it for themselves. Hubby is very upset so while he was on the phone arguing with them, I remembered another architect/PE that my hubby was very impressed of, a French guy who drafted my parents' vacation home 12 years ago. I called him and he would be available in one week to work on our project, guess whose house he is designing now? Jon Ive, the guys who designs the iPhone.

Sounds interesting. Have you seen pics of houses he previously designed.
I wonder about re-design of things as our neighbour has just had lots of internal work done. Sometimes I have a dream that they have had so many holes drilled that we will hear a crash one night and the house will have caved in Our house is very original. It was new when we moved in but it's looking a little tired now.
Yesterdays goal was just a bit of sorting out in the house which I did get done. In the morning it was a fairly long walk which tired me a bit.

Yesterday I potted on most of my seedlings. I will run out of space, I think, so may put spares in a box at the bottom of my drive for people to help themselves if I don't give them to family. There are not really enough to sell.
Today I plan to visit my mum, as usual on a Wednesday. A bit of a rest after my busy day yesterday. It would usually be our art group meeting but Covid is still restricting that
