While I Have Been Gone

I am sorry for my absence during the month of May. Life was crazy busy and it was nice not to have to worry about blogging. However, now that the kids are out of school and soccer season is over I have time on my hands again (haha, yeah, whatever) and I am excited to be back to blogging.

It looks like the warm weather has finally arrived, and it is about time! While the cabbage and Kale have loved the cool wet weather, my other heat loving veggies have been struggling.

This is the cabbage patch
(well and Kale and Broccoli too)

I love to watch those first little cabbage leaves curl in starting to make the head of the cabbage.

This is a beautiful Red Kale. I am determined to learn to cook and love kale this year.
Wish me luck.
Nice healthy Broccoli.
See this lovely bare patch between my Turnips and Spinach? Well that is what happens when you bend over holding a bottle of round up and accidentally spray into your vegetable beds. This whole area was suppose to be filled with spinach and turnips.

Sigh…I reseeded….

Little bitty Celery. This is one of my new vegetable for this year.

And my itty bitty Basil, they ended up surviving the late snow, all be it a little worse for the wear.
This bed has some Bok Choi growing nicely. Everything else is still little, or not come up yet.
Except….
The Chard, something has been munching on my chard……Grrrrr

The grapes we put in this year, bare root are doing beautifully
as are the strawberries.

I love this time of year.

One thought on “While I Have Been Gone

  1. Aimee,

    It is nice to "see" again. It is nice to take some time off though I think.

    Your garden looks lovely. We had a rabbit munching on our green beans I had to replant it all.
