planted mesclun last year

I did so as well. Every few days, gave them a hair cut and put them in the salad spinner. Good eats! I couldn't find the seeds I liked from last year so sowed the few left over and bought another brand so don't know if I'll like the mix. I did plant some bibb though.

Beans, carrots, onions, broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus, mesclun, various greens are sprouting. Tomatoes and peppers have been transplated from last years' seeds. Need to get squash and peas in the ground tomorrow and that should be everything. Well, need to start some herbs.

We’ve had temps in the mid 80’s here this week .... not normal by any means. I know if I get too ambitious, we’ll get a freeze .... worried about all the fruit orchards in the state, too. I need to go ahead and ‘take the plunge’ I guess ... the one good thing is that any ‘cold snap’ won’t last but so long so I could probably cover things and be ok.

My salad spinner was in storage last summer and I really missed it! I dug it out of a box about two weeks ago and boy, was I a happy camper ... never thought I’d be so thrilled to be reunited with a salad spinner. It surely makes washing & ‘drying’ salad a breeze.
