Plantin' time again...
Somehow managed to get it together to order seeds from a seed catalog in the late winter, buy some soil, and find some little potting containers - let's plant some seeds! And even though I was much better organized this year than last, the seeds actually haven't been doing as well. We have transplanted the cherry tomatoes and larger ones into the garden now, but the strawberries and cucumbers have been disappointing. So now I'm thinking it's like when the goldfish dies and you run to the store to get a new one before your kids figure it out - similarly, am thinking of running to the garden centre to get some little plants and exclaim to the kids: "well looky looky what happened to those strawberry plants overnight! We must have green thumbs...."
