Warm Dirt is Simply Irresistible

I know I said that I could wait until May 24th to plant the garden but I just could not help myself.  The weather was so nice today that I had the boys help me spread out a sheet of plastic over top of one of my frozen pallet gardens in hopes that the sun would work its magic.  

Sure enough, by mid-afternoon - ta da - the garden soil was not only workable but deliciously warm!   I simply could not resist whipping out my lettuce, radish, chard and arugula seeds.  My special helper chicken and I tucked the seeds into nice straight rows in the warm, moist dirt.  

Ah, I so love gardening.  My dirt covered hands and knees were a most welcome sight.
