Some of our leafy vegetables have gone a while without being picked, and the additional warm weather has caused them to bolt. I've decided to let them flower and go to seed. They're pretty yellow flowers, and add a bit of spark to our garden. Nina thought it was pretty cool to learn that vegetables sometimes had flowers.

Some of our leafy vegetables have gone a while without being picked, and the additional warm weather has caused them to bolt. I've decided to let them flower and go to seed. They're pretty yellow flowers, and add a bit of spark to our garden. Nina thought it was pretty cool to learn that vegetables sometimes had flowers.
What's happening now?
--- Finally settled in to our new house (mostly)
--- Taking care of all our animals! Three chickens, a rabbit, a dozen finches, and two Alaskan huskies.
--- Working on turning our dirt-yard into something respectable
Who are we?
This blog follows the adventures of Taylor and Tine as they craft, cook, and turn their house into a home.
