Green Day (not the band)

Well, today was a green day.

The first picture I took (after letting the cockers out) was of the angel wings above my desk (long story)

my day is guided

After a nice soak in the tub, I got out to the garden at 8 am ready for action.  I added a pint of kelp fertilizer to the injector system I put in yesterday and irrigated for 4 hours.  I will see if my mater and pepper leaves green up.  If so, I am ordering another injector for the other garden.

Then I commenced to weeding.  I got the lettuce done the peas done and most of the herb garden done.

mucho bettero

If you compare this pic to one from a previous blog, you can see that it looks so much better.  Still a little way to go though.

Took a break and got some baybay pics

lookit, I've got a tail now!

So much food, so little time

Then took time to pick the peas (bless my pea pickin little heart).  There was a bunch!
today's winnings

I got a mix of snow peas and garden peas.  I shelled (not the snow peas), blanched and froze same.

Then I took time to mess with JW...

Talk to the foot!

And paid for it later

Almost needed stitches.
So, really, a good day.

  1. I LOVE THE JW PIC! It's like you're about to stomp on him :D Also you're sage is beautiful! You should consider cutting and drying or pressing the blooms.

  3. I have plans for the sage blooms. SEEDS for next year. Flowers are beautiful but ephemeral. Seeds are humble but eternal.
