Blog fatigue

So... I've decided that blogging should definately be a winter sport. There is just no time in the summer for it with the garden. So from now on... I only blog in the winter. Ahhhhh... I feel better now that I've said it outloud. :-D
Updates:
I will be posting my all-stars list this week. My website is still being worked on. The delay... Me. I need to submit a lot of copy and have been way too busy.
Seems like next year I will be growing a lot of new things. Discovered the joys of Groundcherries. Who knew these things were so good and didn't tell me??? Also.. Turnips. I have never tasted one in my life until last month. Another well kept secret.

Oh and Chinese Lanterns. These things are sooo cool looking. Stole the seed from a garden in France with my partner in crime Sebastien. I guess they are self seeding and multiply so plant once and forget it. Just decorative but very catchy!!
Have the garden put to sleep for the winter. Now the planning for next season.. Woot!!

Sorry. I knew they were great. Had them at a farmer's market a couple of years ago and have been growing them ever since. Didn't get that many last summer because while I was laid up from surgery hubby decided to "help" by weeding the garden. Of course, he thought they were weeds. AAArgh! Everytime he "helps" something in my garden dies! Like the time he cleaned out the flowerbeds by pulling up all my perennials. He's either just that bad, or wicked smart knowing if he keeps killing things I won't ask him for any help :)

The seeds catalogs are arriving. It's like crack for gardeners :) I would like to try to grow the rebecca sebastians bull bag this year but blueribbontomatoes doesn't list any seeds for this yet. Do you know of another source?
