Now we’re talking

05/26/2016 by Holly

We are back from our little vacation jaunt. Sorry not sorry for not telling you, internets. While I don’t own fine things, I still don’t want you robbing me of my peas.

Oh wait, maybe inviting that would have been a good plan, because as I may have mentioned before:

THE PEAS HAVE TAKEN OVER.

Next year I will make so many adjustments to the pea situation. I definitely did not take into account the following factors:

  1. weight
  2. full stature
  3. weight of full stature
  4. reachability
  5. airability {spell check tells me that’s not a word, but me cares not}. I have some powdery mildew on the leaves and stems that don’t get the best airflow. Must change that arrangement for next year.
  6. division between the two crops {wando and sugar snap} because they’ve grown all intertwined
  7. weightiness of the staturesqueness {not a word, don’t care} of the fullness of the peas

*sigh.* At least they taste good! But I do think I could prolong the health and pickability of the crop with some better planning next year.

{And seriously? Pickability’s not a word?? I REVOLT.}

Oh, hi there

I'm Holly from zone 7b.
My veggies grow above ground where the rabbits help themselves, and the flowers grow in ground where the children help themselves. Sometimes I wish I was a pioneer. Then I move the clothes from the washer to the dryer and think better of it.
