Glorious In-Ground Garden

One of the most awesome things about having a house - in my book anyway - is outdoor space. I'm not talking balcony space, which - don't get me wrong - was a great feature of our last two apartments, but it's not the same as having your own land.

Yesterday we put in a 4-ft.-by-4-ft. raised bed. It's filled with seeds and seedlings of three different tomatoes, four peppers, cilantro, dill, orange mint, basil, arugula, French breakfast radishes, and lemon cucumbers. I brought rosemary, oregano, lavender, and parsley in pots from our Arlington apartment. They're thriving. Hope the in-ground garden does too. I'll post status reports.
