Asparagus

You either seem to love it it hate it. When I was in 20's and 3rd grade I hated it along with zucchini. Now I love both.

Until my 20's I never had it fresh or mushrooms either..it was always canned/

Then there is that whole thing Gwen and Aunt Francis said about pee... but I never noticed.

I just got my first batch of fresh asparagus, on sale, yum.

Now is the time for quick bread.

At Christmas I make cranberry, pumpkin ans zucchini bread for friends and co-workers.

I'm out pruning this morning and putting the stuff in the compost bin.

The geraniums are going wild.

Its easy to snap off a branch and stick it in dirt.

Need to plant some poppy and sweet pea seeds.

I remember grandpa having sweet peas next to his garage, in Des Moines, all summer.

Mine only last till March/April because of the heat here, but I love them.

Time to start my tomato seedlings too.

Gardening reduces stress.

Especially when you gave a gardner for the icky stuff you don't want to do.

It's Therapeutic none the less.

I'm off to a baby shower today and to visit the kittens at a pet faire.

I'm reading Shadow Dance by Julie Garwood.
