We have had a great asparagus crop in the garden this year. See photo of our morning yield and the grandaddy of spears so far. Almost a foot long and and inch in diameter. We'll have to draw straws for this one. Quick dip into boiling salted water, drain, and serve with melted butter, fresh ground pepper and maybe a few bits of diced shallot or red onion, but not really needed. Delicious.
All those sturdy geraniums from the basement window (see February 16 post) were transplanted into their outdoor patio pots this morning. If we don't have any more frosty nights (the 15th of May is our zone's average last frost), we'll have blooms galore for our patio dinner parties.
Tomato plants will go in the plot next weekend--if it looks like it's summer weather.
