Even so, it was with enthusiasm that I went out and planted my peas this week, and put up the Leaning Tower of Peas-a (hee!) AKA a bamboo-pole teepee that leans slightly to the left... soon I will also make a ladder on it with some twine (as soon as I FIND the twine). AND one of my cucumber seeds sprouted indoors. So, that makes at least one of everything I planted indoors... I have decided that I am going to just make peace with whatever comes up, and I'm not going to bend over backward to *make* things grow. It just stresses me out, and the results are rarely worth it. On that note, I am trying not to overwhelm myself with things that don't grow well here. While I am going to try sweet peppers this year, it's only because I have the pop-up greenhouse, which will make better conditions for them. Same with the melons.
Also, this arrived today:
This, friends, is my gift to myself. A new bread maker. A not-cheap-ass bread maker. Although, in my defense, I did buy an open-box unit, thereby saving myself $40. :-) I am very excited about this... hopefully the long line of doorstops will end.
