The first cut is the....sweetest !
The spring season is officially in full swing. After watching 'my' Mets lose to the Brewers today, I went outside and conquered my Sunday chore. Yep, no more procrastination, I got 'er done. That's right, I mowed the lawn. The first one of the year.
It forces one to walk the perimeter of the pondarosa and ponder. This year I've planted a bunch of different flower seeds in various locations on the property and am awaiting signs of growth. But, there's no indications yet.
Last week I planted asters, larkspur, morning glorys and appropriately, bachelor's buttons. :) I also expanded my veggie garden last weekend and notice that the radishes have already sprouted. Yipeeee ! Harvesting for them is only 3 weeks away ! I eagerly await them and all the other veggies; tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, zucchini, lettuce, carrots, broccoli. I also planted cantaloupe and sugar baby watermelons and every year the big raspberry bush keeps getting bigger.
There is nothing like the taste of fresh home grown fruits & veggies ! It will be a fine summer !! 
What are your favorite; flowers, fruits & veggies ?
