Quite clever. It took me a second to figure it out.

I planted a row of beets. The green bean seeds say to soak them over night, so I’m doing that.

We have asparagus plants. They produce two or three stalks a day, this time of year.

Thanks! The line between the asterisks is from DiP, when Chris Marshall’s character Humphrey is trying to get Catherine to laugh at one of his jokes. (It was just so fitting...)

I don’t know why I’m awake when I want so badly to sleep. I think it’s because of the way PW is acting towards me, lately. I’m on my guard, and I hope I don’t drop it. She’ll know and I’ll be sorry.

I love when fresh cooked green beans squeak in your mouth!

Asparagus will just keep growing. It used to grow along the ditch bank when I was a very short person. Mother would send me out with a paring knife to cut some. I thought it was a lot, but my hands, like the rest of me, were five years old and couldn’t hold much. So I had to make several trips and then she came out and got enough to fill her apron.

Funny how that popped up. I need to put it in my journal!

Done with the washing part of the laundry, but the hanging part will have to wait for a while. I’m going to have a nap before I tackle that!

Sleep was iffy. I woke up at O-dark-45 and figured I may as well just get up. So I did. This is me, almost ready to go back to bed — as soon as it warms up a little.
