Pardon me......


Pardon me while I ramble on and on and on about my garden and vegetables like they are child in my home......The truth is, I could talk gardening and cooking all day until my voice was cracking.


These are my Cosmic Purple carrots and YES!!!! I am VERY excited about them! They are not a typical carrot.  They have a sweet/spicy taste to them....I can not wait to eat them!


Golden Sweet Peas! Their YELLOW, they make me excited, and I can't wait to see them!! 


Lettuce that lived to see the light of day.....


....after the flooding.....


The velvet nose that lives next door to my garden!
I love her! :)


These things are giving me fits!!!!!!!! They are my ever bearing strawberries with attitude. I think I pulled 6 berries off of 40 plants last year.  This is their last year to shape up or its the compost bin!!


This....this.....is the massive mountain that awaits my shoulder.  The area to the right is all tilled (THANK YOU TIMOTHY!!! (Arrow#2)  It taunts me every time I step off my front porch, or enter my garden to check on the carrots (to the left in the raised bed), lettuce (way over on the left next to the fence) or cut asparagus (way over on the right)  My shoulder aches just looking at that!! Anyway, I need to rake out all the sod and haul that away.  Scott has borrowed a tiller today, so we are chewing this garden up and spitting it out!!  Ready to plant next week! It's going to be so "posh".   I really have no idea what posh means but Jamie Oliver says it all the time, so I am to, because I love English!!


See the little tiny apple just starting to form??? Cortlands!! 


....and another one...



....and some Mac's....


Hurray for Onions!! Those feathered beast have left them alone long enough to grow another inch or two!  I am going to add a little more loam/manure to them to keep the little onions under ground.  I want them nice and big!  I have plans for you little fellas!  Ok Cheri-o, tut tut, and all that sot a thing!  Meet ya back here in a couple of days!
