There was frost all over the ground today, in fact, all over everything. It was so beautifully quiet this morning and frosty white it made me wish for snow days. I also got really excited about spring, wondering when the last day of a hard frost would be and when I could get those beans in the ground. I want to taste fresh peas again!
This was the first year I have taken the time to write on my calendar anything about the frost or cold. I have usually left these things up to my friends to keep track of. I have to admit these past few years of gardening have been a bit of experimentation, wonderful experimentation, with lots of tasty treats. And isn’t that what it is all about — start slow, learn a bit as I go, and keep going.
However, there are quite a few days before those bean sprouts can take root in our garden, so I will let those thoughts go and concentrate on moments like these hanging right outside my window…
WOW! This is amazing.
