Delectable Spring

It is delectably becoming spring and I am ready for warm weather. Last weekend I got my husband excited too, and we built a garden plot out of cement blocks. I planted several each of lettuce and spinach, along with herbs like parsley, chives, thyme, oregano and lemon balm. This weekend I added radishes between the lettuce. I then mulched my little garden with shredded paper from my office. It works well once you wet it down to keep it from blowing away in the wind. It looks like a layer of snow!n 2 weeks I will plant more radishes. I plan to add some squash soon. Oh, I did plant one cherry tomato plant in my earth box. So ready for lots of sun, just the right amount of rain and some delectable salads!
