Photo Update!!

Finally got out in the yard with my camera today...it was really freaking cold out considering earlier this week it was 80 degrees. Here are some shots I took of the daily "rounds" ...

No garden is complete without a mystery. My youngest son plucked a seedling weeks ago that I managed to save but I "Guessed" it was Kale (the larger of the two plants). Clearly it is not the same thing as my other known Kale seedling near by....sigh.







Bok Choi and Mustard (purple) and onions of course. Not great pictures, much prettier in real life.











All Hail the Mighty Stinky Marigold, protector of the garden, may you ward off the mean buggies that want to eat my veggies.





Lettuce, black seeded simpson and an asian mix....all loose leaf.
















Peas Please. All of my peas are up save one. I am noticing some slight white streaking on some of the leaves on a few of the plants and hoping it is not something dreadful. They are progressing nicely.













Prolific is a great word to describe what is going on in my flower bed/ kitchen garden. The dill and cilantro switched places, probably a simple fact of where they dropped their seed, but they are back in force and many many recipes are glad for their return.









Really cute kid, grown organically with no pesticides (BELIEVE ME)
















Interloper: uninvited guest of the Ipomoea Violacea variety... aka...pervasive freaking morning glories from H.E. double hockey sticks... I actually think there are more in the yard now than actual grass....











Heathen slugs....eat while you can, I got your number....I know where you live. Already chomping my cabbage.. I am starting to think cabbage does not have a prayer around here.
