Adventures of Garden Girl

Didn't I tell you I suck at blogging? I used to be better at it. That was before life hit me with a litany of to dos that I don't usually want to do. Like laundry or having a job where wearing my sheep jammies are looked down upon. Not that I don't like my job or having a job, I just like working at home because everyone there says my jams are awesome.

What I have been up to however is gardening. I've always liked it but more as a passerby. A few tomatoes in the backyard, some planters on the poach. This year however, I went balls to the wall. Go big or go home. Since I'm already at home I'm not sure where I'd go. Maybe inside to take a nap.

Anyway, I started a lot of seedlings and build a ton of raised bed gardens (full disclosure, I supervised the building because I probably would have just started them on fire if left to my own devices) and have been planting like crazy since the danger of frost has passed.

I've also gotten involved in the transition gardening movement. I'm not worried that the world will end or anything like that (I'd be drinking a lot more if this were the end of days, not planting corn) but I do like the idea of eating things I've grown. Like a mother hamster. And I like the idea of harvesting and processing my own herbs and what not. Or just growing them. I'm not really sure how far I'll go with all this. It's possible I'll just be a helpful resource to others because I do know a great deal about herbs and what they can do so yay.

I'll be documenting all the things in my garden so here's a preview of the flower part:
