So the big thing to do over here is have a veggie garden. Everyone has a veg garden and everyone talks about how their garden is doing. You ask someone what they plan to do this weekend and never fail the answer is, "work on my veg garden." Usually followed with, "Whew, it is over grown with weeds." or "It has been so neglected." Nobody ever says their garden looks good, when everyone knows it probably is perfect.
So, Aaron and I felt really left out of the whole veggie patch thing and since we live in a crap apartment downtown, we had to get creative. The middle of September when we thought spring was about to peak thru, we decided to make our own (pathetic) veggie garden. We took Aaron's fish bins from work - used to carry nasty dead fish around - and planted tomato and lettuce plants. Not long after the planting a big freeze of like 2 weeks completely killed our tomato plants, but I have to say the lettuce love urban living. (Notice how I am too lazy to pull out the dead tomato plants.)
The lettuce looks good! I see a salad in your future. Are you sure those tomato plants are dead?
ReplyDeleteNot sure they are dead but they are very sad. Have a feeling that sad plants do not make fruit.
