Dirt, lots and lots of dirt.

This is my Mother’s Day Breakfast in Bed.

Oh, how I love French Toast. YUM.

Happy late Mother’s Day to all of you!

I’m trying the Square Foot Gardening Method. This box is 4′ x 4′ (picture taken from my 2nd story window on my iphone because the kiddo’s have killed my camera.) and has 1 Tomato Plant, 2 Green Beans, 1 Zucchini, 4 Spinach, 4 Beets, 4 Onions, 4 Strawberries and 4 Marigolds (for bug control).

The idea is to bring in very nutrient rich soil, only 6 inches deep and to grow vertically.  If it goes well I’ll add another box or 2 next year.

We are lucky enough to have some free help.

She’s pretty Cheap labor.

And cute to boot.

She also eats dirt.

Over and over again.

I’m actually impressed with how clean her face is in the picture.

We had a few falls that required kisses and Band Aids and then all was right in the world again.

I’ve decided not to clean my bathtub until next September, because I’m sure we’ll be having ‘brown bath water’ until then.

I’m really efficient like that.
