How are you feeling right now?

Hungry.

Feeling pretty damn good, right now.


I have been in the garden preparing for spring planting. Got a few callouses and blisters, sore muscles, dirty nails and torn pants.


It just does not get much better than this.

Are you going to have a vegetable garden? 

Yes. I generally do. I mostly grow greens (shard, spinach, kale, broccoli, lettuce varieties) and roots (carrots, beets, turnips, radishes), a few herbs (cilantro, rosemary, thyme, lavender, basil and lemon grass) and some beans (lima, green Blue lake, giant fava and long string), tomatoes (usually just a couple of modern hybrids, an heirloom and a couple of late bred grape/clumping style miniatures) and peppers (only some hot bonnets, hot and mild jalapeno, super sweet tiny bells, a few yellow Hungarian, Italian pepperoncinis, Mexican chile de arbol, and large California bitter/sweet bells).

I do not have enough room to grow a proper garden, but I do my best with what sun hits my soil.  If I had more room I would also grow asparagus, corn, barley and considerably more fruit trees than the two peach and one apple and three pears I already have.  I would also enjoy to have some nut trees, but they take even more room and you can not generally grow other fruits near nut trees. They (most especially those of the Juglans genus) protect their growing space by exuding toxic chemicals (true!).


I also have to have some sun for a pool in my backyard to keep myself and the kids happy during the summer, but that would be a much longer post.

I'd love a juglans, but my garden is too small. And it would take 15 years before a sapling would bear fruits too. So, not an option.

Worried.

Amused. Oscar the bookstore cat is exitedly telling me about his morning.

[Binty]

Weird.  Just read what my middle half-sister thinks about me, the little cunt.  Found her blog ages ago and sometimes read it.  To think sometimes I felt sorry for her and tried to reach out to her.  Idiot.  I'm glad that at least my little sister is awesome.

Does he live in  bookstore? Great cat life that must be.

Yep. One of the chattiest cats i've seen, too. 

[Binty]

Pissed off.  I feel like confronting her now and telling her exactly what I think of her.

Would it really solve anything, or do you think she would just make you angrier?
