Dreaming of spring … until the ice hit
I was so excited Friday because just about all of our seeds and planting materials. Visions of spring, seedlings, plants and sun began dancing in my head. I was prepared to begin setting up my planting area in the basement and get some tomato, pepper and eggplant seedlings started.
Of course, I woke up today to nothing but icy, slushy weather. Doing the outside chores turned into a slip sliding mess reminiscent of an Olympic competition. Once I got through the slush my boots would sink deep in the mud and want to be suctioned off my feet. After that I just wasn’t in the mood to do any planting. Hopefully the sun will come out this week and put me back in the mood!
