It is nice to have lettuce in January without a cold frame, but the trees could use a couple of good snowfalls.

Found Exhortation (Excerpt)
It is a fine thing to reminded to love, but for the most part fruitless to be commanded to love a certain thing or person.

State of the Garden
At last enough beans all at once to make a meal. Until now, the birds and I nibbled the few a day while still outside.
State of the Garden
I went out into the garden right after I sat for meditation this morning. Even at 7 a.m., the air was hot summer thick. I harvested cherry tomatoes, a handful of green beans, a cucumber, a red onion, and some garlic greens, basil, and a jalapeno pepper. Then I went back inside and practiced some asana and cleaned house in anticipation of a guest arriving for lunch. I weeded a little, but did not fully plunge into all that could be done.
I have lots of epazote. Anybody need some for planting or for cooking? I let only a little go to seed many years ago, and it comes back in force every year. I let it grow wild between the bricks of my patio, but keep it out of beds and containers. It could be a real challenge in a more open garden, but in my constricted, urban setting, inviting the useful, invasive plants to grow where nothing else will grow is a good use of space.
