Garden

This Spring-like weather has me looking forward to planting this year's garden.

The above photo is a cell shot of one of 2 beautiful green bell pepper plants. Unfortunately, due to the extreme heat (even for OK), none of the other vegetables fared as well. Despite frequent watering and shade on the hottest days the salad greens wilted before picking time, the Japanese eggplant shriveled, the 6 tomato plants yeilded few fruits, and on and on. But still I shop for seeds and anticipate this year's crop. Because to me, there isn't anything much cooler or more rewarding than growing your own food.
Are you planning on having a garden this year?
