Garden Delight!

We enjoyed a romaine, spicy mesculan, easter egg radish, green onion salad. Why am I excited about a relatively mundane salad? All of the ingredients came from our garden!!! They wer the first harvest from our little plots of garden space. I am ridiculously excited as it is the FIRST time we have actually gotten a decent harvest from anything we have planted! In addition the potatoes that I planted are starting to pop up as are the spinache, chard, and corn. The sunflowers, chamomiel, dill, cilantro, are all doing great. They seem to like the weird weather. We now have space to plant more veggies and plan on planting more of the mesculan (its really good having a slightly nutty flavor to it), more radish, a different kind of lettuce and the herbs we haven't planted yet. It should be a great summer of harvesting veggies! Pictures to come.
