We expanded and planted the garden this weekend. We're growing romaine, zucchini, sweet banana peppers, bell peppers, strawberries, tomatoes, and numerous herbs. Last year's garden went great until I added an organic fertilizer, which between that and the Arizona sun, burned all the plants. Very sad. (My basil and cayenne made it through, though.) I learned my lesson so here's hoping attempt number 2 works out a little better.
Owen became buddies with an inchworm today. I caught him bringing the inchworm inside the house and exclaimed, very parent like, "no bugs in the house." He responded, "but I LOVE him, mom!" Unfortunately, he loved it a little too much and the inchworm has passed away from too many hugs. Rest in peace little inchworm.
And, of course, nice weather means it's hammock time. Owen became an instant fan.

Oh, that is just beautiful!! The sun, an inchworm and a hammock. You guys are really making me miss summer up here. (We woke to snow this morning.) Glad warmer days is on the way for you. And your garden plan is great!! Yum, yum!
And our thoughs are with the little inchworm. Better luck next time O.
Oops, I meant "are on the way." I origionally said, "summer is on the way" but I know how hot it gets in the middle of summer so I changed it to just warmer days.
What fun, can't wait to see you guys. Is there anything you need from up here?
Let Owen know,we can bring a slug down,to help him through this loss of a good friend! Love G.U.D.
You know, I've looked at this post 50 times, and just now noticed the plants off to the right in the bed with the rock edge. Boy! :0) It all looks fantastic, and I can't believe everything you guys do. I love the picture of Eddy and Owen in the hamock. It looks like heaven. :0) Love you guys. Have fun with Dad, David and Carol. Mom / Grandma Bug
