Plant a Peck of Peppers

Need a pick-me-up this time of year?  There is nothing like getting your hands dirty to feel a renewed sense of purpose.

Given the snow swirling outside, it might not seem like the right time to start growing a garden - but indeed, it is.  Today we planted cayenne and jalapeno pepper seeds - the first of many vegetable seeds that we will germinate indoors before transplanting into the garden.  In a few weeks we will start the sweet peppers and than everything else will follow.  I cannot believe planting time is here already.  Spring will be upon us before we know it!

I will set up the lights on top tomorrow and then we watch and wait for sprouts.
