I'm so happy that I got all my seeds planted 2 days ago. In fact, I went out that afternoon and planted sugar snap peas along the chain link fence! And, I raked an entire area where I want to put my spring garden. I'm going to keep throwing my coffee grounds out there and raking them into the soil. I have a bag full of horse manure to spread around, also, so that area will be nice & fertile by spring (if the STUPID DOG stays OUT OF IT!)
We got sprinkles yesterday afternoon and it was DAMN COLD here with the wind blowing. I made the mistake of going to Whole Foods because the 6 year old granddaughter needs some white grape juice (she has a severe stomach virus AND she's lost 4 pounds!). She ended up in the ER Tuesday night crying and in extreme pain. The ER was absolutely packed. I've never seen it like that. And, I drove home and left Papa with our daughter and granddaughter, since I can't manage to stay awake after 9 p.m. They waited... 7 HOURS. He was dropped off at 4:30 a.m. and we all got there at 9:30 p.m. the night before.
Anyway, Whole Foods was nothing but... a headache. The store was PACKED and they only had 3 checkers and there were 3 lines with at least 10 people and carts in EACH LINE! I mean, what is WRONG with that store? People were grumbling and rolling their eyes. After that I went to Trader Joe's. THEY had every line open and there was only 1 person ahead of me there. Now, THAT is a well-run store! And, I had to return in the afternoon because hubby wanted to make pasta for dinner and we had no sauce or sausages or red wine! So, back I went, and it was still well run! They get 5 thumbs up. Whole Foods gets a ppppffffftttttttt!
So, enjoy the holiday with your family!
