I don't really know what I'm doing and I experienced some moments of frustration when I was flanked on both sides by my two kids fighting over who's turn it was to plant the next one. It was hot and the garden has many square feet - why must we be so close that our sweaty skin is touching?
The fence got repaired, a drip on a timer is installed...everything should go according to plan and I should have some veggies this summer. Right?
I planted many strawberry plants...I have a thing for strawberries. Mom made me a dress with strawberry patterned fabric when I was little (maybe 2 or 3?). This picture reminds me of it...but it didn't have a black background. Remember that dress? I wish I knew where it was...

I finally planted this weekend, too! Motsly herbs: Italian basil, Thai basil, thyme, spearmint, parsley, sage and my favorite....chocolate mint! (How could I pass that up? It actually smells like a cup of mint hot cocoa!) I also got tomatoes and broccoli. Yum. Now how long do I have to wait again? ;)
Your garden looks great Jessica! So much more organized than ours. At this point we're only planting in pots. Looks like your thumb is getting greener every day!
Your garden looks awesome! I can't wait to see when everything starts popping up!
Marcella - I think I'm going to plant more herbs in the front little area as right now I only have cilantro and basil. I heard mint can totally overtake though so I was scared to plant it. What's your thoughts?
Jamie, thanks - I can't wait for them to produce also. I am optimistically hoping it happens this year ha ha!
I think I might beat your title of being the worst Gardener ever…but I still really want to do some gardening with the kids. Thanks for this post…from one black thumb to another.
