the first full week in the garden is coming to a close. we´ve created a new mountain of weeds andhave attacked what´s come to be known as "the jungle." the north garden is getting closer and closer to actually being ready to garden. i´m sure if i wasn´t so tired, i´d hardly be able to contain myself.
the most exciting part of the week however was not the weeding, but the new plants. in the toasty warm living room we´ve planted lettuce, raddichio, tomatoes, peppers, crook neck squash, zucchini, cucumbers, broccoli and celery. in the garden there is some mysterious independent spinach, and we´ve planted swiss chard, radishes, beets and onions. thus far we have lovely little lettuces sprouting, raddichio, tomatoes and radishes. so cute, so new, so wonderful. i promise to love them if they promise to grow.
the weather has been beautiful this week, so i´ve spent all my time outside and no time knitting. fortunately i finished my mancala board before moving last weekend. i´m hoping to finish the top i started in the next couple days. without the knitting group, i don´t have any designated knitting time, but i´m sure some rain isn´t too far away.
after spending a few hours in mill city this week, i´m finding it quite charming. pockets around the town are home to some nice houses with beautifully landscaped yards. the river running through town has a path next to it. the thrift store is full of crazy and amazing things. the pharmacy is full of teapots and great toys. the town isn´t at all what i imagined, but i like it.
and now for a relaxing evening...
