I just spent an hour plus tearing up my hands (and fingernails) trying to thin our monkey grass. During the process I decided it should actually be named "Pain in the A$$ Grass." Brad said that probably wouldn't sell as well.

To Garden or Not to Garden

Brad and I have often talked about planting a vegetable garden. Last night the subject came up again. We both really like the idea and want to get started but quite honestly have no clue where or how to begin. Brad suggests we get some dirt, throw out some seeds, and see what happens. I have a feeling it isn't that easy.

I have this odd prairie like desire to spend time with the kids in a garden this summer. Then again, I could also spend time with them at one of the bazillion farmers markets around here. Same fresh veggies. Much less work. Possibly less satisfying.

So here I am. Online. Digging before we dig. If anyone can point me in the right direction...oh man...please do.
