Rick had to work this morning, so I got the kids dressed up this morning and we took his Fathers Day Card to him at the store. After that, we went to Lowe's and I got sucked into more tomato plants. And another pepper plant.
The kids and I then went to Walmart to get a few things and then we came home and chilled out and took a nap. Unfortunately for Rick, I'm the one that got the nap today, not him.
We spent quite a bit of time out in the garden today, and I'm happy to say just about everything made it through the cold rainy weather we've been having.
Yesterday I went to Valley Farms, and found some beautiful tomato plants (Grape, Cherry and Heirloom) Those are now in pots on my deck. I put a new Yellow Roma plant int he garden today, along with the cucumper and zuchini plants I bought yesterday.
Only one seed at come up, and I found some lovely ones at the nursery. They also had organic compost, and I bought several bags of that, much of which has now been worked in around the tomato's and new zuch and cucumber plants. Tomorrow it will go around the sugar snap peas, which are doing really well and starting to climb the fence I put up for them. I will try to get some garden pictures up soon.
The herbs are really starting to perk up now that we have some sun, the cilantro is finally looking good, and the rest of it is starting to really grow, I'm so excited!
So all in all, we are looking good I think. I hope so, I can't keep spending $1.99 on a stinking cucumber!!!
My cucumber died, I have to find another one to plant, I wanted cucumbers so bad! Sounds like you had a nice day yesterday!
