That is the question that my husband asked someone the other day, referencing me, of course! If anyone knows me, they know that I can't keep living objects alive...with the exception of my kids, of course! I have a black thumb, I even killed the flowers I bought on Good Friday, for Easter...Easter morning they were dead. I had dead flowers for my arrangment. I could go on. Anyway, the kids wanted to have a garden, a vegatable garden. It sounded fun, so here we go! I am trying with everything in me not to kill my kids first garden. So here are some pictures of what our garden is starting out as. Then hopefully, it will be full of lots of green things...hopefully, not weeds!
We decided to grow strawberries, tomatoes (which John pointed out the label said vegatable and they are a fruit...good observation John), lettuce, carrots, broccoli, watermelon, corn, cucumbers and potatoes. I think it will be fun and full!
This is our "farm" (as the neighbors like to call it). We decided to do all corn this year. There was a lot going on at our house when it was time to plant, so we decided to try our hand at corn again. They said it couldn't be done. But, look at this corn!
We had some with our meal the other night. It was delicious!This corn is especially special. It reminds us of my wonderful father-in-law who was the most amazing guy when it came to growing a crop. This crop is in honor of him. We happened to plant the corn the morning he past away (before we found out). So, it was very memorable when we ate it. We thought of him the whole time. I think that must be why we did so well! He taught us well! Thanks Wes!
