First Veggies from the Garden!


Spring is so early here this year. The lilacs are all bloomed out, and they are usually just in time for Mother's Day. The peonies will probably bloom before graduation time at the beginning of June, BUT, I planted cucumbers and tomatoes yesterday when I saw that the weather forecast for the first week of May included 70s and 80s. While I was doing that, I realized that some of the French breakfast radishes (do they really eat radishes for breakfast in France?) were ready! Great on our salad last night, and they're very mild, too - maybe that's why they have the "breakfast" label. Too bad I don't have a picture of the ones we ate, but here's a substitute.
