First Garden Harvest 2020

I hope everyone is healthy and doing alright with our new normal. When the weather permits I have been out side working on the gardens. My kale never died the winter because it was so mild. It recently started growing again. 


I was able to pick a nice bunch this morning. I will be incorporating it into our meals this week. YD loves smoothies and always tosses some kale in. The gardening season has finally begin!


Have you harvested anything from your garden yet this year?

    Just a small handful of snow peas and a couple of green onions that overwintered. But, a bunch of things are growing and it won't be long! I can't wait. Right now, we spend quite a bit on produce. It will be so nice to not have to spend that money, and to have it handy in the back yard when that day comes.

    It's early to plant tomatoes, peppers, squash, etc. out, but volunteer cucumbers popped up in the garden from last year's old lemon cucumber bush, so I'm going to put a few plants out and see what happens.

      Well Rob looks great so keep the veggies coming. I love shopping in my garden. I love looking at pictures of all of your canned produce. We will be busy soon.

    YAY! Good for you. It is always nice to hear about the first harvests of the year. Nothing planted here yet - but soon. I did harvest chives a couple times last week.

      They count. Most of my garden isn't planted yet either. I did start my seeds indoors for several things and most of them are doing well.

    I have picked enough for a dozen salads for both of us of Romaine, red lettuce, and kale. I used kale in bean soup.

    Your kale is beautiful, Marybeth. It's great that it never died this winter. :)

Oreo Got Hurt

She is OK and that is the most important thing. We are not sure exactly what she did to herself but she started limping Monday night. I checked her paw to make sure there was nothing in it. Hubby and I decided to block the stairs and have her sleep on the first floor. She usually sleeps in our room. Hubby brought down her bed to the living room. In the middle of the night she did a loud yelp. You have to step on her for her to yelp so it was very strange. Hubby and I flew down the stairs to check on her. She was in pain and didn't want to put her foot down. We got her to lay down and I got ice on her leg. I wasn't sure if it was her paw, leg or shoulder. She finally went back to sleep and I did too.  YD is the first to get up and I heard her walking around. 2 minutes later Oreo let out another huge yelp. I ran down the stairs and she was in the kitchen. She had an accident on the floor and wanted to go outside. We have one little step out the back door and she had no prob...
