The Annals of the extremely diverse, artistic, literary, and musical lifestyle of a Charlotte Mason education-loving family. Our philosophy, even though our children are all grown now, is to allow for time and space in each day to be present for those memorable moments; the ones both on and off the calendar.

time for another edition of "Garden Update"
Things are getting bigger! From left to right: marigolds, mint (from our old garden...came back along the rocks and edges), potatoes (not up, yet). Second row: lettuce, one cabbage, badly attacked by cabbage worms, squash. and cantelope. Third row: romaine lettuces, multiple varieties of tomatoes. Fourth row: romaine lettuces and pepper plants of various sorts. Fifth row: onions, onions, onions.
Herbs and strawberries
Pictures *are* worth a thousand words, right?! I love the shape of pepper blossoms.
Bell pepper
One iceberg lettuce. This was given to us as a seedling, and we had no idea what type it was at the time. The rest of the lettuce is Romaine, with one red-leaf lettuce plant.

Everything is coming up nicely!
At our house, unfortunately, the only development is a fence post that rotted at ground level due to the low-lying, water-gathering area we dug up for a garden and then never got around to filling in with good soil. So we are planting a post instead of vegetables! Live and learn, right?
Everything looks just lovely! It seems funny that you have so much that is so big. We still haven't had more than a couple days in a row with sun. It has been a long cold and wet winter/spring.
Wow! Everything looks wonderful.
These really look great! When should we come for dinner?
Party of 8 now, you know...
