Planting a garden...

I feel quite accomplished today. I got my tomatoes planted and a variety of pepper plants planted. Our radishes should be ready soon and I can't wait! I saw one of the women on Food Network roast radishes and carrots in the oven and they looked amazing! Never thought to do that before.

Spring has arrived!

So, it has been a while since I last blogged. But, life happens...

I'm very happy it is SPRING now, BUT my "touch of asthma" is NOT enjoying all the pollen. However, despite all the pollen, Grant and I have a cute little garden in our backyard just a growing. I plan to plant the BIG garden out at the farm this weekend if I can get some help! I NEED a BIG garden this year.

This summer I plan to can green beans, tomatoes, pears, and figs. I might try to get some corn growing and freeze that along with squash and zucchini. I wish there was a way to preserve lettuce...

We also have several fruit trees we planted last year and this year. I can't wait for my lemon trees to make fruit! They already have blooms!
