Time Travel: Final Garden Spoils

Time Travel: Life got a bit away from me this summer. I have been working on finishing up school, and with the addition of my lovely almost full time job, I haven't much time for anything else. Posts with the Time Travel disclosure were posted well after I intended to post them. Sorry!

Today, I pulled all of the carrots out of the garden. I had no idea I had so many growing! I know they look small, but a friend had convinced me the soil around here wasn't great for carrots, so I expected them to be even smaller!

I juiced up the carrots from my garden, and some store bought veggies to juice up.

These are store bought carrots because I wasn't sure what my yield would be.

Garden!

I started a garden! I'm really excited about it, and I've enjoyed variably telling Jer that I want to go play in the dirt/cow poop and watching him shake his head because he knows what a germaphobe I am. Guys, I'm seriously a huge GERMAPHOBE. Capital letters totally a must. 

Anyway, Here's my garden as it looked this morning when I was done with it. I purchased tomato plants that someone else had started inside because I did not, and relocated a few strawberry plants that grew on their own from upstairs neighbor dude's garden last year. He moved out, I poached the plot.

I also planted broccoli, butternut squash, lettuce (3 kinds!), and carrots (3 kinds!). Did I mention I'm really excited? I'm really excited! The wood is for me to stand on, because it bothered me that I kept compacting the soil when I stepped in, so now I have something to stand on.

Also: I have no idea what I am doing.
