Greens, Carrots & Coco


We were on vacation and there was no one to put my cold frame cover down.  Thought I maybe had lost things but the greens are still good.  Just wishing I would have planted more and some a little sooner as don't think they will grow much now.  Really surprised to see a couple strawberries yet.  The small one was soft but the the larger one was good.  Pleasant surprise!


Pulled out some of my carrots.


Pulled out the remainder of the carrots and one green onion.


These are my carrot boxes on the deck.  Coco is checking to make sure that I didn't miss any carrots!  She did find one I missed and boy, was that tasty!!!


She needed a little closer look I guess.  My soil is getting a good rototilling!


May as well give up!  Mean ole Mom!


Let me in!!!!  Shhhhhh!  See that black dirt under my nose!  No one will ever guess that I have been in the carrot box!

You are wishing you had planted more greens and sooner and I'm just wishing I had planted them at all!

Yum yum on the strawberries...I'm sure they tasted amazing. And Coco is so funny!

I love that greens are so hardy. I'm glad they survived for you.

Hi Margaret, Thanks for commenting. Finding not much harvest to post about anymore but Coco is a good subject! Nancy

Hi Daphne, I am thankful greens are hardy too as there is not much else to harvest this time of year. Nancy

That is hysterical that she dug in that box. How funny. Nothing like home grown carrots! Hope you have a great week! xo Diana

Hi wanderlust designs, Thanks for commenting on my blog today! Our previous cocker lived to be 13 years old and I was so sad that we had to get another. We love our little Coco and she is such a great little buddy! Nancy

What an adorable Coco adventure! How could one ever be upset at that cute little (innocent!) face!

I love seeing that you still have green... anything! (We've got snow - blech.) That's funny that your dog digs for veggies - love it!

Hi Becky, Turned really cold here now. About all the greens I will be harvesting for awhile are kale, a few beet leaves and maybe a little parsley. When does the garden season start again!!! Nancy

HI Lisa, I missed seeing your post! Coco can try my patience at times!! Nancy

Progress in the Courtyard!

  It was so nice to look out my bedroom window this morning and see the Clematis blooming instead of a pile of snow.  It is a rainy day agai...
