Little Carrots
I’m so excited! My second crop of radishes are ready and the little carrots are ready to pull!
I remember my grandparents vegetable garden; it seemed to take up their whole back yard. Rows of corn, potatoes, pole beans, onions and carrots!
Grandpa would take my brothers and I out to the garden to “help” gather some veggies to take home. It was like magic to us that growing under the feathery green tops were delicious crisp little carrots. Grandpa would pull 3 or 4 for each of us and rinse them off at the garden hose. We would eagerly gobble them down asking for more!
Funny, Mom had a hard time getting us kids to eat our carrots at the dinner table; I guess they tasted way better right out of the ground seasoned with a bit of dirt.
From the Garden
Remember my post in June about planting a few vegetables in the garden this year?
Well, It’s been just over a month since I planted the tiny seeds and already I’ve been rewarded with fresh radishes and lettuce!
It’s very easy to grow vegetables… even in the rain!
It’ll be awhile before the carrots are ready to pull.
