And Then There Was Bread...

Well,

A wonderful 1st batch of homemade bread was had by all. Served warm and buttery, alongside a hearty bowl of Minestrone, eaten under the big oak tree...it was perfection! I would say Rhubarb pulled off his first batch of bread quite splendidly indeed!

Today was an 'overalls' day. Meaning Rhubarb wore his overalls...with extra flare that is! Many starts were put at home into the ground this evening by both Goonie and Rhubarb.

So far, the planting of little beings is looking like this...

In the herb garden we have: Rosemary, Thyme, Parsley, Chives, Sage, Lavender, Cilantro, a row of poppies, a lilac bush, rhubarb, and a few squash that survived their move from inside to outside.

In the garden we have: leeks, onions, garlic, shallots, eggplant, broccoli, cabbage, Brussell's sprouts, lettuce, corn, carrots, radishes, bush beans, melons, greens, yams, sunflowers and pole beans.

In our homemade lettuce box, which is very bling, we have: lettuce and stir fry greens.

In between, we have: parsley, cilantro, and strawberries.

In the ground, but we did not plant, we have: mullein, dandelion, and miners lettuce.

So, as the season progresses, that list will get larger and larger! And with that, our fridge and pantry, stockier and stockier.

Seeing as the end of this week may bring temperatures up to 90 degrees or more, we look forward to the jolt of sunshine and warmth for the plants, and dread the all encompassing heat that will indeed infiltrate our old farm house! Air conditioners are on their way!!

Well, there it is...
