Another day in the life

torquillThe garden is still there.
It's a good thing to know, since I hadn't looked at it for several days. The peas need to be picked tomorrow, and the rhubarb needs a temporary bed. I weeded a little, and fed the garlic with the remainder of the alfalfa tea; I had to raise the brewer to get enough hose pressure, something I've been meaning to do for ages. Otherwise things are going well. The broccoli looks fantastic, which is a real achievement -- it's hard to actually give broccoli enough nitrogen to do well in this soil.
I potted up the miniature African violet I got in Cincinnati. It's very cute. It's also exactly the same blossom color as my full-sized African violet, which is blooming like mad. One orchid is pushing an early flower spike, and the other is putting out new roots. The scented geraniums need to go outside before they take over the windowsill. Happy potted plants.
I didn't do a lot today because I was exhausted (the first week of classes was a killer). I have bread in the oven, though, and it looks good so far. This time might be the time I get it perfect.
