How does your garden grow?

Well, we got our garden in right on time. It rained the next morning, Tuesday, and poured, poured down last night. The lights went out all over town, including at work. Fortunately, they came right back on again. I was sitting near a co-worker. We were copyediting the front page of tomorrow’s newspaper and all of a sudden it went black, very weird feeling. Not a person I’d want to be sitting next to in the dark….

But it should be good for the garden. Our garden at least, not everybody was able to get theirs in yet, including my boss. She was working Monday night when we put ours in. Oh well, she likes flowers better and got a lot of those in I think.

I’m thinking I’d like to have a harvest party this fall. You know, cook up some of the produce from the garden and invite people over. We could eat corn on the cob in the backyard. (we put in two rows, hopefully we get quite a few ears) Too bad Chad’s grill went up in smoke, we could do tinfoil packages of veggies and butter on the grill. Oh well, the oven works too. Well, we’ll see what actually grows.
