More Gardening Fun....

April 7th, 2005 at 03:35 am

The kids and I were back out in the garden this afternoon, for more scratching around in the good dirt. So far their enthusiasm shows no sign of waning. We did more soil prep -- digging and raking and smoothing, even getting a wheelbarrel load of manure on (the first of many more), and working that in. So far so good, and the kids, particularly DS, are quite proud. A few mishaps however -- first, our only pitch fork broke, and then awhile later, our only hoe! Um, two of our most important garden tools? Was it *really* necessarily to have them BOTH break on the same day?? On what was only our second day of gardening at that??? Okaaaaay. So now it looks as though we will be needing to invest in some new tools (sort of a two steps forward, one step back kind of a thing I guess you'd say...). Hmmmm, perhaps I can find tools through Free-cycle or something.....

In all, a busy day on our end, so dinner called for something simple and quick -- spaghetti and sale-purchased sauce, with homemade vegetarian 'unmeat'-balls that I made a big batch of a few months ago and froze (in meal-sized quanities), and peas. Ahhhh, easy but good....!
