Making funny faces with my Mom.

And now S M I L E!!

My hungry brother waiting for his soup.

And here it comes, delicious chicken soup with noodles made by my uncle Jacek.

Second dish: boiled potatoes, cucumber salad, pork loin and pork chops. This food is dangerous!!

Veggie salads. Because we all love vegetables.

And delicious cakes.

Yes my friends, this is traditional polish dinner. Full of calories and fat. But it is nice to eat this kind of food from time to time.

At 18.20 p.m. me and Maciej cached a bus to Pernik and spent lovely time with Dari and Vesko. First we were drinking a frappe in some Cafe in Pernik, while chatting with Dari and waiting for Vesko to come. Then we left off to Rudarci to Daris summer house.

BBQ in Rudarci.

At the very first pic: Daris brother – Ivo and his girlfriend. Unfortunately, they didn’t stay with us… but they helped us to start the fire (and yes, they used a fan to do this)

There was so much food to eat and we cleared the table in seconds…

Sunday

After a very “hard” night we decided to go to Pernik and do some sightseeing… My favorite destination was Ruins of Krakra’s castle near the city.

Thank you for the unforgettable moments spent together.

poor Maciej, at the very last photo he looks like a handicapped child…

Basil is a warm weather plant that needs plenty of sunshine and heat. For three months in the summer that may mean planting them in your garden, but if you are looking for basil year round you may try growing the plants indoors. Not only do you get the experience of fresh basil in your meals, you also get a beautiful plant that has a wonderful smell that permeates the house.

Growing basil indoors can be a challenge but it is not as impossible as it may seem. The most important concern you have with planting the basil is what to plant it in. Ideally you should use herb planters that can be found in any garden store, but strawberry pots, and cells are also popular options. The proper soil is very imperative to producing a healthy plant. You need well-drained soil that is very nutrient rich. The pH of the soil should be at least 6.0 and below 7.5. Checking the pH every 4-6 weeks and maintaining the pH with an organic fertilizer will keep it at this level. Normally basil isn’t a fussy plant in regards to the soil composition but container growing needs a little more looking after.

Watering the plant is something you want to pay close attention to. It should be soggy, but not drenched. Any leftover water should be drained immediately through the bottom, so make sure your pot has a hole or saucer underneath the pot. Placing the plant in a south-facing window will give it the sun it needs if you do so for at least 6 hours per day. If that is not available you may consider artificial lamps. Any generic fluorescent light will do, but you should consider buying one that is specially made for herbs. You need 10 to 12 hours of light per day if you are growing the plants strictly by artificial light. If you are using both the window and the natural light, consider putting the basil plant in the window for 3 hours, and under the fluorescent light for 6 hours to have the same effect as the actual sunshine.

With some patience, understanding, and a little bit of luck your basil plant will start to grow in 8 to 14 days. Waiting until the plant has 2 to 4 sets of full leaves before harvesting will ensure you a beautifully gown plant with tasty results.
