i'm bored and excited for the CSA share tomorrow. we're getting:

June 11

Vegetable Share:
1 head red lettuce
1 head green lettuce
1 bunch radishes
1 bag arugula
1 bag mesclun lettuce
2 baby leeks
1 bunch local asparagus

Fruit share: 2 quarts strawberries

Flower share: Teddy bear sunflowers with snapdragons, rye, and oats.

Plus we get 6 organic farm fresh eggs

i dont know why i'm so excited for fresh veggies but i really am lol

going into the warehouse at work is like going into a different country. it's about 15-20 degrees warmer than the office and the air is thick and humid. i walked back there before to bring back a batch and i was sweating by the time i walked back to the front - the whole trip was maybe 2 minutes.

pretty pretty basil from the garden makes for a yummy dinner. tomatoes with purple and green basil, spaghetti squash mixed with pesto and some parmesan, and hot dogs (cause nothing was defrosted). no pic of the hot dogs cause they look like hot dogs and not pretty and covered in basil lol


i never know how far down the stem i'm supposed to be trimming so that it'll grow back. i always take some stems and then some just leaves. i should really look that up.

our 10' garden that i'm proud of:

there's still some rocks and leaves that we need to clean out but it looks pretty to us. on the table in the patio i'm growing italian parsley (that the cats ate before i got a chance to plant and is slowly coming back), curly parsley, purple basil, and a bunch of green basil. oh and banana peppers.. theres teeeny tinnny little buds coming in which make me really excited.

i feel like i may have already written about my plants. i really think i have. wow, if so i lead a boring life. oh well im not going back and checking now.
