We've had a mild winter. My lawn needs mowing. Probably will mow
Saturday or Sunday. Thinking it's almost time to till the veggie
garden, also. Hope to start some seed beds soon.

I have snow covering my lawn. I won't mow until May at the earliest.
A friend puts out a garden. It will be May before he plants. I
remember picking green beans in the garden when I was a child. I will
never ever plant a garden.

Yum, green beans!

We had peas last summer, too. You don't have to do anything special with
them, just open your mouth and eat... if you use raised beds, straight off
the vine!

I've come to the conclusion my planting a garden here is just
feeding those tree rats with the fancy fur coats and the minuature
Kangaroos that invade the garden every year. ANd it's not as if
hasenpfeffer or squirrel stew are part of my diet - - -

I think the last 2 or 3 tomatos I got out of my garden likely cost me
in excess of $5 each - and my raspberries about $10 a pint. And that
didn't take into account the cost of the fence material that stopped
the bunnies but just gave the squirrels something to run around on.
