Don't Hate Me Because It's Warm...

One of the nice things about living where I do is that I can start putting plants in the ground in February.  Almost three weeks ago, I picked up a few things at Lowe's and put them in my little raised bed in the back yard.  Then we got a freak cold snap, almost freezing temps and a week of rain.  I was worried about my poor little plants.  But, as luck would have it, they're doing mighty fine.

Strawberries...



Garlic....



Serrano chiles.



And so is the cat.



And then I took another trip to Lowe's this afternoon and picked up Roma tomaotes, Anaheim peppers, and asparagus.  I need a new hobby, I think.

It is nice to know that spring is showing up somewhere. But hey, we're going to be above freezing most of this week! I don't expect to see grass, but maybe sidewalk!

On the flip side, this only means the triple-digit heat will come faster. :)

YAY - getting above freezing is a huge step in the right direction. And I bet it's the prettiest sidewalk ever. :D

It's the dog path, not all that pretty.

Oh. Okay then. I retract my earlier statement. o_O
