Long Time No Garden...

It just came to me that I haven't mentioned the little veggie garden in quite some time and really that's simply because there has not been much progress. With the crazy weather we've had here I haven't been able to actually get the seedlings into the ground until yesterday. They still seem pretty fragile to me and there just hasn't been an abundance of sun for them either so they are really growing pretty slowly.

Yesterday I got outside and finally was able to put seedlings for both red and yellow tomatoes, bell peppers, cabbage, broccoli, and brussel sprouts in the ground. I put lettuce, radish, cucumber, spinach and onion seed in the ground too. We'll see what happens.

It got really cold again last night-grrrr....but hopefully not cold enough to stunt the growth of these plants. I swear I might cry or throw a tantrum if I don't get some veggies out of this lot this year.


I haven't started the herb wheel yet-everything I've read says to wait until it gets a bit warmer.

Looks good! One of my goals is to get a garden going this year, so I am definitely taking notes on your progress!

Awwww.. I really wished we lived close to eachother. That's one of the things on my "want to learn" list. I'm absolutely hopeless when it comes to gardening even though I have a keen interest. I just don't have the attention span to read any books on it. I just really wish I had someone who could come over and visually teach me how to plant and take care of my veggies. That picture reminds me of how my garden looked one year post planting. LOL.
