Backyard garden

I decided to do a thing. I touched grass, and all kinds of other gross, I mean, fun stuff, and took pictures because I wanted to be closer to nature...

mhua ha ha ha, no, I did it because vegetables are fucking stupidly expensive at the grocery store.

This was me watching shit ring up in the checkout line -

I made a small raised garden in the back yard out of scrap wood and some quickly gathered materials, and then loosely followed the wisdom of this lady -

and here is the journey with some pictures:

The basic layers are in the handy picture I made for myself to refer to in six months when I don't remember how to make dirt.

My mind, whenever someone asks me how I did a thing in the past -

Next year will be just newspaper/cardboard and the leaves/grass clippings. Although some wood chips that have the mycelium threads would be great to get in there someday, or maybe a little wood chipper for fallen limbs to just make my own.

I thought about going full country and starting a compost pile, but it seems like more work than the lasagna gardening itself to maintain and keep up with, so no.

Planted so far is Thai Basil, Broccoli, Jalapenos, and Strawberries, with Asparagus planned for the back section.

Long term I would like 5 total beds with trellis on the end and possibly arching back to the fence.

Potatoes, garlic, onions and plenty of herbs are planned for future beds, with the largest bed designated for three sisters - squash, corn and beans.

Asparagus is a fricking nuisance plants in some areas up north but its 8 dollars a shitty handful at Publix? Fuck that noise, now I got the cash crops, IE - crops that let me keeps my cash.

I'll try not to be that usual internet stranger that never posts an update!

I gotta say, watching the Garfield movie makes me hungry.

They did a good job at animating the food to look delicious.

Wintering The Garden

As the days are getting colder and colder, and it is frequently freezing at night, Wintering The Garden becomes essential, if you want to see it beautifully abloom come Spring. Now is the ideal time to feed and enrich your soil, too; next year's harvest will reward your efforts!

Can't wait for fandom to see more of Izutsumi so they will finally stop calling Marcille the picky eater of the team.

We're all family at Olive Garden. That means we poop with the door open.

Chocolate Lasagna from Olive Garden, I absolutely love it! The most decadent and smooth mouse and chocolate crunch on the bottom cake layer is the perfect dichotomy.
