Shade vs Shadow. Transcription: “Hi there, everybody. DebOnAir here today. And today, I am back in the garden.

Or to be more exact, I'm on the terrace, or the patio, as we can call it. I'm in such a good mood because we've got the first real week of sunshine and spring weather, and it always makes me happy. I don't know about you.

And I have planted some of the tomato seedlings. They sprouted very well, and so I got very excited and planted a few in the garden. The bad news is that a slug, which is a black slimy thing, decided that it was tomato party time, and now my seedlings are not very many.

It's not looking too good for the tomatoes now, but we will see. What about you? How are you enjoying this weather?

Do you like to go out in it? Or is it just too much, too sunny, and you prefer to stay in the shade? Very popular word to get wrong.

People often say shadow, but it's in the shade when you're away from the sun. Shadow is what you see when the sun shines on you, what is behind you. That's your shadow. So whether you're in the shade, or being a sun god or goddess, I hope your week is great. And I will talk to you again soon. Take care and bye for now.”
