Life is good. Fresh, and I do mean FRESH, tomatoes are the finest food in the world.

1. I'm jealous.
Man, that would be nice.

How big is your garden? Anything else planted?

3. It's kind of small
I have two small raised gardens. One is 4x8 and the other 3x6. I also have some basil and I'm trying artichokes this year. Oh, and catnip for the kitties.

8. We barely have buds on the trees here in Michigan.
I think it snowed two weeks ago! We have had good weather the last week or so though. I can't wait for the lilacs to bloom. Right now they don't even have leaves. The best things are Michigan tomatoes, corn, and apples. Yummy. I am jealous of your fresh garden stuff!!

9. I love lilacs!
But they don't do well here in Arizona. The tomatoes will be all over by the middle of May.

12. wow so early!
It's exciting.. I dug around in the dirt today for hours, it was great :headbang: I smell like yard now.
My berries are just starting again, they have little teeny strawberry and blueberry and grape babies on them. It'll be a while before I can pick them and anyway the squirrels will probably enjoy them before I do lol
