Do you remember my very first garden, back in 2014? And then it expanded a little in 2015. By 2016 (the last garden update here), I’d grown the garden as much as I would at my previous apartment. That was such a great beginning! Now, I’m in my 8th year gardening and my 3rd garden

Once again I have a garden! These photos are only from 11 days ago, and I’m already astounded by how much the garden has grown since then. I’ve already eaten two salads from it, and used some kale and herbs in a bean soup. It’s so wonderful! I’m just so excited to have a garden
My garden gets me ridiculously excited on a regular basis. I just have to share how awesome this is! These first two pictures are from a couple months ago, right after the snow melted. The spinach plants from last fall survived the winter! Now contrast that to what those spinach plants look like now. I
Well, I’ve already missed nine days out of the first thirty on Project 365. I’m trying a new thing this year, though: sometimes is better than never. For example, for years people have been telling me that I need to do daily stretches for my knee problems, and what always happens? I do them really
