The Watched Pot


I love the immediacy of Spring. The way you wait and wait and it seems like the sun will never shine, the day will never come... and, and-!!! It's here and it's all moving so fast! But still. I was certain that we would check on the garden today to find it bursting with lettuce sprouts and springy onion tops. But. It was a cold and cloudy weekend (couldn't bring myself to post without pictures), and I would have stayed undercover, too if given the chance. But there was one little lettuce sprout. And Edward promptly removed the green sprouty part of our first two onions. Doh.

PS- that picture on the left, that's a sprout there. It really is.
