Well I wouldn't call it a spending spree by any means, but I did have to buy a couple of new clock/radio's - my son needed one and mine was channeling the devil last night. It has been making a weird noise lately just every so often, but last night the clock just started making these garbled screechy noises and I had to unplug it. Totally creeped me out.

But along with a few other items I bought a couple of plants - some tiny orange tomatoes, a cilantro plant (who's gagging on that???) and a Cinnamon basil - anyone ever seen that? It smells incredible!

Yeah that's what I thought. I would have to have bought a Mayo plant to get SG.... but I'm thinking Gabz is also a cilantro gaggerist

You're right.........I've got over 100 seedlings going right now!!!!!!! And plan and starting that many more once I get those in the ground. No such thing as too little cilantro........

BTW, I have twice that much parsley started.........

well i just hope the weather holds for you this summer bc all that work can be for naught as we both know, if you get supersaturated or drought.

I've got 50 basil plants started - I'll buy the more exoctic ones for my own use.

XS - I truly appreciate what you are saying. Drought I can handle...........an over abundance of rain is another story.

ya got a handful of furriners up there at best, mostly bosnians or pakistanis who are no doubt legal and not feeling any particular solidarity with the agitators, even if they did know about it.

I hope the weather cooperates as well, but I do know that I have to live with what the Good Lord gives me.

The first year that I did a decent sized garden we had rain nearly every day and it drowned. Last year it didn't matter that we had drought because I was unable to even get out there, let alone do anything.
