Dorothy, we will always miss you.

Our little Polka Dot may be gone, but she will always live on in our hearts. She was one cool kit.

Harvest!

Mmmm garden tomatoes!

Shoe Fish

Almost every morning there is a fish in my shoes! This has been going on for some months now, but I've decided to start documenting it. Maybe one day I will see or even hear the culprit!

The Veggie Patch after 10 weeks

We've eaten a lot of snow peas and green beans, some radishes and a carrot. Looking forward to tomatoes, scallions and spaghetti squash later on!

My Veggie Patch- 4 weeks later

It's been 4 weeks since I planted the patch, and things are growing! (Disclosure- the big leek in the back-right corner is from last year. It took its time, but it eventually grew!!)

Veggie Patch 2013!

I started some seeds in the greenhouse, and transplanted the seedlings and planted new seeds into the veggie patch on St. Patrick's Day, Sunday 3/17/13. I dug some good organic fertilizer into the soil so I won't get pygmy veggies this year! I covered them with Darren's homemade seed row covers until they get big enough so birds don't eat them and the sun doesn't fry them:


I also dug around for any blue potatoes that might've grown from the tater I planted in November... 4 potatoes! OK, they are midget potatoes, and I will probably replant them and try for normal sized ones, but it's a start!

Uh-Oh!

Too many lemons on the tree.

Still a Patient

Genever got her bandage off today, but she is still in pain, poor little girl! She is happy to have her leg back though.

The Patient

Genever hurt her rear left leg in the wee hours of Sunday morning. She was hopping on 3 legs so we took her to the vet. She's not broken, but...
