Maybe you'll have better luck. : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Kat,<BR/>Your enthusiasm is just what I need to stay motivated with this new project!<BR/><BR/>Hi Tania,<BR/>Thank you. Looking forward to seeing you over there.<BR/><BR/>Hi Jeff,<BR/>Oh I think the chickens will somehow manage to survive, LOL. <BR/><BR/>Hi Stacey,<BR/>Start small--do you have a sunny place for a few containers of herbs? Even lettuce and tomatoes can successfully be grown in pots. You must have room for some kind of garden! : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Catherine,<BR/>More infectious enthusiasm--thanks.<BR/><BR/>Hi Jamie,<BR/>If I can keep up with it, I think it's going to be very helpful. Plus it'll be nice to have more photo documentation, too. Just looking at those pictures of the garden from 2003 really put me in the mood to get out there and get my hands dirty. : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Shepherdgirl,<BR/>You're done with lambing? Ha, no wonder I haven't had any emails lately. : ) Send on the gardening ER questions. I certainly hope I won't get rid of you that easily! <BR/><BR/>Hi Berecca,<BR/>Oh Maya Angelou has said so many incredibly wise and wonderful things, hasn't she? Thanks for the paraphrased quote. : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Gustad,<BR/>Those little sprouts are Swiss chard--yellow and green (probably Verde Giant, but I'm not positive). They're from seeds off these two monster chard plants that I've miraculously kept alive in the greenhouse for three gardening seasons now. (I plan to write more about them in the near future.)<BR/><BR/>That larger plant on the right is mache (corn salad), a delicious little salad green that absolutely loves cold weather and is an excellent self-seeder.<BR/><BR/>The taller sprouting thing is garlic. These are all my favorite kinds of plants--volunteers! : )<BR/><BR/>Hi Kalyn,<BR/>I don't know what is going on with Blogger (and gmail). I just wrote a long comment on my garden blog and it just kept giving me different word verifications over and over and over and would never publish the comment. I came over here expecting the same thing, did a test, and it published. We'll see if this "real" comment does, LOL.<BR/><BR/>Sun--yay! Even though I love cloudy weather--and so do the plants--I was hoping for some sunshine here today so I could heat up the greenhouse and hang up some laundry outside. Oh well. Ah! Here it comes, poking out its tentative head. Just had to complain a little I guess, LOL.Farmgirl Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04851855517852917202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-1143156566314258372006-03-23T17:29:00.000-06:002006-03-23T17:29:00.000-06:00Your greenhouse and gardens look just wonderful. ...Your greenhouse and gardens look just wonderful.

I find I am always looking back to my blog archives (patchy though they are) to find when I planted something, when something germinated, when the last frost was, etc. This sounds as though it will be very helpful--and a joy for us to read, too. :-)Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03304958139383108809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-1143094654440308692006-03-23T00:17:00.000-06:002006-03-23T00:17:00.000-06:00Way cool!Way cool!Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13416412232636141747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-1143087411323128312006-03-22T22:16:00.000-06:002006-03-22T22:16:00.000-06:00I'm so jealous-- I want a real garden!I'm so jealous-- I want a real garden!StaceyBellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01901097793943410318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12997259.post-1143082461961959162006-03-22T20:54:00.000-06:002006-03-22T20:54:00.000-06:00Woo!
