OK, not very sanitary, but I couldnt help it ! Tomsky is not supposed to be on the counter at all, let alone in a pot, but my back was to the counter and he jumped up and into the pot, and hunkered down so as to hide....such a cat-like thing to do :>...I just had to laugh !
Most of the seed catalogs are in and I've made many lists of what I'd like to grow, but the reality of the cold, hard January ground right outside the window and the awful state I left all the garden spots in the Fall, gives me pause as to just what I can realistically expect out of myself. Lettuce, peppers, beets and tomatoes are definites...potatoes, chard and zukes I want to grow, but the bugs so love the potatoes and squash leaves that it's hard to keep ahead of them.
I've followed Eat The View's efforts to replace at lest some of the White House's lawn with an organic garden ...what a great idea ! In fact, we are going to grow some food in our front yard this year, too...peppers and tomatoes would do well out there. All this lawn drives me crazy...grow it just to mow it...how dumb is that ?
