A lot of people said that today felt like the first day of spring. An impromptu break in the garden led to a short but sweet qt with friends, including my new friend and neighbor of almost 1 year, Luca. He loves eating peas. I’m hoping that he’ll be able to hang out and walk around among the flowers by summer.
I’ve been trying to do a little each time I go out, but this time of the year is always overwhelming. For now, I’m just sticking to sowing seeds here and there. Hard labor is reserved for the weekend.
I got this idea of using the yogurt containers that my seedlings grew out of as protectors from a fantastic book called One Magic Square. I’m not sure if this will provide enough protection for my newly sowed seeds, but I’m hoping for the best.
With so much challenging work ahead and so many uncertainties, any reassurance is welcome. Garlic cloves were planted right before it got freezing last fall, and they were the first to come up this season, along with some spring bulbs here and there.
And my long neglected strawberries resurrected! What kind of fruit it’ll yield, if at all, is still a mystery.
