spiders in a brown bag {GROW!}

i am overdoing my garden this year.

it is a for sure thing.

but if there's one thing i've learned about gardening,

it's that once you finally get it all in the ground,

the more the merrier.

the more i plant, the less weeds i get.

at least once everything is really growing.

so sean's cousin tiff came up this week and we started our seeds together.

she brought me a brown lunch sack and giggled when she handed to me.

when i opened it i thought she brought me spiders.

creepy little potato stems!!!

so gross.

so i've got my little garden growing to the left of my kitchen sink these days.

covered in saran wrap as a makeshift greenhouse,

and i tell you, it makes winter feel like a thing of the past!

next week i'll be rushing to them each morning to see if any have sprouted.

it's fun fun fun business.

i've started your standard big red tomatoes,

sweet 100 cherry tomatoes,
green zebra tomatoes,

jalapenos, anaheims, 

brussel sprouts,

walla walla's, green bunch onions,

purple cauliflower {tiff brought this up, it's a special treat!},

kale,

cilantro, basil, and rosemary.

and those are just the ones you can start early:)

there are at least 10 more packets of things that i'm putting straight into the ground 

at the end of may when we rotatille.

i can hardly wait to see my pumpkins and corn growing each morning 

out of my kitchen window this summer.

now for the motivation to get out there next week to plant my early peas...

sweet, snap, early peas.

i have never been able to get myself in the mood to go out and plant in the cold months for the cold peas.

but i always want them by the time it starts to get warm.

you have to do things you don't want to do,

so you can do the things you want to do.

this is what i'm telling myself inside of my head.

we will see if it gets me out to plant my peas.

happy friday.

grow little seeds,

GROW!
