Got the vegetable garden tilled on Saturday but it was a chore. Started out with water in the gas as forgot to top off the tank last fall and add stable. Then I hit a piece of 5/16 steel rod and wrapped it around the tines. Bolt cutter time. Just about finished and the drive belt came off. 15 minutes to get it back on.

Potted pomegranate tree is out of the garage and on the deck and the first leaves are trying pop out.

For those near Central Kentucky you need to try Thieneman’s Herbs and Nursery at 11535 Louisville Road in Coxs Creek. It is about a 45 minute drive for us, but the quality and prices are well worth it.

Bummer with the tiller. I hate when stuff like that happens. Of course we don’t even have a tiller, but hubby has a leaf blower and chipper. My shovel handles etc. for gardening.

However, I often have troubles with kitchen gadgets. Almost always when I’m in a hurry and need stuff to go smoothly. Par for the course.
