So with all the flipping issues with fresh food anymore, I am all about this gardening thing, LOL. I have given Mark such a hard time about the garden... between the prelim days of him stirring the dirt (crazy to see a man out there prepping his dirt, lol), then him planting and replanting due to freeze, and then the garden getting out of control!! All of this said though, we have been enjoying fresh zucchini(never did get that zucchini bread made, lol), summer squash, carrots and tomatoes (mainly cherry ones that Kaya eats like candy, lol). Saturday, I enjoyed a salad with fresh regular sized tomatoes and carrots. OMG!!! I know why Mark always said he hated to eat tomatoes from the grocery store b/c he always had fresh ones from the garden!! There seriously is no comparision! The are so full of flavor... juicy, dang they were SO good. Oh, carrots too! I had never had my own garden grown carrots... again, the flavor is amazing!!!
So, Mark wants to make another garden box for next year, so we can plant more. I was very opposed to this idea as I do not want more of the yard chewed up, but I have completely changed my mind! Plant away honey! Oh, I have apologized to Mark for being such a pain about the garden and anti-support, LOL. I might be a nagging wife at times, but I do try to admit when I am wrong (happens so rarely though, LMAO).

Love love love fresh veggies from the garden. I need to get off my butt and plant one next year.
Christy... good to know I am not the only complainer, lol.
Chandra... oh, I am all about that being Mark's job.. although I think there might be less work there than keeping up with flowers, etc, lol.
