Is It Evolution?

While you were distracted watching cats tackle babies on YouTube, Jer's GardenBlog wrapped itself up in a cocoon. The minutes flew by and a stirring began within the imaginary white shroud. Now, though Jer's Gardenblog is no more, if you like butterflies, you're certain to like Garden Nirvana.

What I mean to say by all this is, update your links.

Some Food

As I'm on my way out the door, here are a few extra pictures I thought I would post today. This salad was almost entirely home grown, including lettuce, green onions, carrots, cucumbers, and nasturtium flowers.


I found one tiny beet that I had missed in my previous beet harvest. Dwight was probably distracting me. I found the little chopped up beet bits pleasing.


And I'm off!
