Spring is here!

So, spring is here and it's time to plant my latest crops. This year I
opted for fewer veggies, hoping for a larger harvest.

This year's crops are only tomatoes, strawberries, and cucumbers. I
also planted an assortment of herbs as well-basil, thyme, dill,
parsley, cilantro, chives, and oregano. I LOVE making food with fresh
herbs! So excited to see how everything turns out.

Last year, I got about 5 green beans, 10 cucs, and 0 zuchinni. I
think the zuchinni needed a deeper pot, and I had a giant worm attack
that ate ALL of the leaves on my bean plants. The cucs did the best.
I'm banking on that again this year and hoping for a large crop of
strawberries. Yum!

If Sean gets time, he's going to build me another planter box that is
a bit deeper. Hopefully I can grow a few bigger things in that one. I
would like to try a squash again. Beans are out-those are too big for
my little yard, and the amount of beans you get out of one plant
hardly seems worth the work. A plot of land would make that easier.

So this weekend was redoing the yard and getting it ready for spring
and summer. I have missed the beautiful warm weather! I sat outside
most of the day today. Wish i had ONE more day off.

Welcome Spring! Loving this Easter day!
