My little garden

I was inspired by the recent poppy explosion to get some gardening in this weekend.

On a recent trip to Costco, Kim and I purchased a new tumbling composter. With a lot of elbow grease and some ingenuity, we finally got that pain in the butt assembled. This will make composting a snap. When that was all said and done, I decided to plant scallions, cucumbers, carrots and romaine lettuce from seed. I threw in one more sweet basil plant for good measure. I'll have to wait to see what grows, so to speak, but I'm sure something will pop up. I'm officially sore and tired, but I definitely feel a sense of accomplishment after digging in the dirt.
