Dost thou love life?
Then do not squander time, for that is the stuff life is made of.

It's amazing what 72 hours can do....

Not a darned one of my jalapeno or Early Calwonder seeds are up yet and we're at 10 days past planting. Not a clue what's up with that. I may have to try again with different seeds.
Finally, I just got an email today that my Yellow Finn potatoes, asparagus, blackberries and strawberries have shipped. I'm hoping they'll be here in time to get the potatoes planted this weekend. It's been 82 degrees here for the past 3 days and, if the weather stays this way, we are well past time to plant potatoes as they're a cool season crop. Hurry, Mr. Postman!
Ohhhhhh... I hope we're not in for a blistering summer here... but so far, we have half our crops in, including potatos and peas. My husband is out there right now watering them, since we didn't get the promised rain (yet) this week.
ReplyDeleteYou just made me feel a lot better, Mary Ann, as I was trying to figure out whether or not I should plant early. I could just see me doing that and then we get snow in April! And I think everyone is wondering the same thing - is this summer going to be 120 degrees? Gak...
