Planting

Tuesday 21 April 2009 | general

April showers bring May flowers: so the saying goes. Hopefully, they’ll bring summer veggies as well.

We’ve already got the flowers covered. Those are nature’s doing, though. We do very little. Strike that. We do nothing.

The veggies require a little intervention. Fortunately, we have a helper these days.

At this point, L is so fascinated with imitating us that she gladly helps. She’ll clean, mop, “clip” her finger nails, clean out Mama’s ears — everything we can do, she can do, if not better in her own eyes.

Hopefully, we can keep that willingness — that desire — to help developing.

  1. Are you planting bananas? :)

    We can’t rush planting, here, up north. Last year our tomatoes turned purple in May after a sudden burst of cold.

    I’m trying to remember the planting season in Poland… Probably close to that in Wisconsin, no?

    • Don’t really know about the planting season in Poland. Late July? :)

  2. L needs a spring Sunday in Lazienki. Although, maybe it will leave her culturally discombobulated. As it did me today. Sigh… K and I have so much in common…

    • K promised (sort of — I think I’m promising for her) to reply. Agghh — the frustration of a reluctant blogger!
