Sprouts

Sprouts are everywhere! ALL the seeds seem to have sprouted! I'm not sure if it's the timing, the little extra love and water, or what -- but there are a lot of cool season veggie sprouts in every bed we sowed.

Lettuces, arugula, cabbage, kale, chard, carrots, parsnips, and more...

And after tomorrow, I will hardly be able to venture out into the garden -- for months! Unavoidable foot surgery is going to tie me down. With that in mind, even with limited mobility and a lot going on this past weekend, I was determined to give my garden a little attention.

Joseph helped. We thinned, moved, and gawked at the seedlings. I hope everything will continue to thrive. Given the great start, I don't foresee any problems. My hubby has inherited his father's green thumb even if he doesn't precisely share the passion for it, and he knows it matters to me. Anyway, who wouldn't want fresh veggies growing right outside their door if possible?

It rained all night and still is, so I guess my active gardening is done for now. 

But I'll observe and make notes, dream and plan, and get out there whenever I can.

    Our Garden

    For years, my husband and I worked at creating a series of gardens on our four-acre lot in a rural, Texas subdivision west of Houston. I have to say, it was a fantastic experience. Now, I have a pocket garden on a golf course.

    I’ve learned that a small garden is as much a balm to the soul as a large one and can keep the gardener just as busy. 

    ​
    While every garden is different, they all offer challenges, pleasures, time with nature.   Much like people, they have their good days and bad days, high seasons and low; and they can all be fun and beautiful if you love them enough.
