There are an awful lot of things growing around here.
Tomatoes: the romas I started a few months ago have graduated to larger pots and are almost ready to start hardening off. If only it would get a little warmer outside!
Basil: Charlie makes the best pesto in the universe. We eat a
lot of basil. So much that we've never tried to grow it for fear we would have to seed an entire field. It also tends to grow a little pokey and slow with our cool weather. This year's experiment is to grow a bunch of pots indoors in the greenhouse permanently. These started as seeds and I just bumped them up to larger pots yesterday.
Vegetables in general: we signed up for a Full Circle CSA box and once a week we get a surprise on the front porch filled with tasty treats. It's like christmas, but with more strawberries!
Me: the wondertwins continue to squirm and grow in my belly, though I can't feel them yet. I seem to have left the hangover portion of this pregnancy and am now just dealing with the fact that I could easily sleep 14 hours in a day. It sure is nice to be able to eat again though!
Harry: well, he isn't exactly growing. In fact, he got shaved a few weeks ago and is at the lovely felt stage. But he sure does look
big.
Chickens: the four babies are now officially teenagers, flapping around and looking mangy while their feathers come in. Grow faster, so you can move outside and stop making my kitchen smell like a barnyard!
