Welcome, Spring

Today is the first day of Spring. It was 70F yesterday, and very lovely.

We started vegetables from seed last month, and here they are growing nicely:





Squashes, cucumber, tomatoes and lettuce. I still need to transplant the cucumber and lettuce into large pots. Why don't I do that today, the first day of Spring?



Yeah, no. Inches of snow fell overnight and will continue to fall and blow around throughout the weekend. The week of 60 & 70F weather was all a farce.

Fruit and Vegetable Trophies

It dawned on me that I have not exposed any of my new readers to the world of Trophy Fruit (and Vegetables).

Everyone loves the banana. Take that however you like. Insert double entendre here.


Eggplant is my personal favorite, though.

There are more more more in my store store store!
