Routines

Everyday after work, one of the first things I do sometimes even before I go into the house is visit with my garden and check out how my veggies are growing. I didn't get to do that today because I was busy after work and didn't get home until after dark. As much as I enjoyed my evening, I had a moment of sadness that it was too dark (the street light is already out so I didn't even get a dim view) to get a really good look at my garden today to see how my plants are doing. I did go around and take some pictures though. It just isn't the same as getting a good look at them in the full light of day...My grasses look like they are about to be consumed by horse herb. I'm starting to wonder if I should excavate the area around them.

My salad greens and spinach are getting bigger. Most of my snow peas and sugar snap peas are connected to the chicken wire in the 4 x 4 bed. 

The broccoli now looks like it is trying to escape the 4x8 bed. I have all kinds of greens that have popped up. Not really sure at this point what they are though I am thinking of pulling out the seed packets to help with identification. The kale and mustard greens aren't as big because I have been cutting the large leaves and eating them. They were good eatin', but I'm kind of sad that they are so small now. I guess I will just have to deal with how things look after harvest time so that my tummy can enjoy the fruits of my labor.
