Work trips really wear me out! Today has been pretty boring but I have some updates for you.
1) Curbside recycling! I’m going on three weeks of solid pick ups! It looks like the driver now knows that I’m on his route! YIPPIE!
2) The garden’s a growing! Well I’ve had some good and bad in the garden. I’ll have to share pics later but I have my first cherry tomatoe turning red and about 50 more green ones. I also have a few cucumbers starting to take shape too. We served out first helping of romaine from the garden last week for taco salad and it was pretty good. Smaller than store bought and a little stronger in taste; but really good. On the bad side…the zucchini is just not going to make it. Not sure what I did wrong but it’s turning yellow and wilting.
3) Compost! The compost is a learning experience. I forget to add the kitchen waste and food scraps most of the time but I do put all my yard waste in the bins. The soil at the bottom is really nice and when I remember to turn the pile I’m quite impressed with it. The main problem to overcome is the last of rain lately. So when I water my garden I also water the compost a little too.
That’s all I have for now. This weekend is going to be pretty busy with family, pre-K graduation, friends and lots of good times by the pool. I hope you all have a wonderful Memorial Day!
