sunday pieces

This Sunday was quite busy and productive, causing me to post a bit late. Yesterday was a perfect spring day (Happy 1st of May!) so we spent as much time out in the garden as we could. It's nice to see our efforts finally coming together. The peas are up, the spinach is leafing out, the onions are in the ground and now everything is covered with a layer of mulching hay. Our seedlings are still pretty tiny, but I think the growing will speed up now that it's actually getting warm. The cats oversaw our gardening efforts as they roamed.

Saturday was a fun day as well, but proof of that is entirely on film so it's a post for another time.

planning for spring

It seems funny to be getting ready for winter and spring at the same time, but that's what you do when you want to have garlic. This past weekend we cleared out a spot in our overgrown garden to plant some seed garlic. It was getting dark by the time we were done, but I still managed to snap a few pictures.

It's nice to think of something out there setting down roots and planning for warm weather while we make our way into winter.
