OMG has it been almost a year since I sat down to blog??? We didn't do to much in the garden this year, why you might ask, I'm thinking it's cause I've been feeling better and have been hitting the gym since March. This means I'm tired, TIRED all the time....I was hoping it would get better but I'm still tired. Overall I feel much better, but the waking at 5am is kicking my butt by 8pm, LOL.
Here is the 2012 Spring Garden. We added irrigation this year.
