By the Sweat of Our Brows

Today we officially started a garden. We prepped the seeds by first planting them in little containers and set them in our window sill to bud. Our window sills were made for growing seeds...so deep and the windows so tall. It seems as though the windows like the sunshine because they take as much of it as they can and blast it through onto our colorful walls. It's like we actually have the sunrise right in our kitchen! In a few weeks we'll plant our budding seedlings out at the Patterson pasture along with everything else we planted today. Today we tilled about 5 rows of potatoes and onions. We used a rickety old tiller that practically shakes your bones as much as it shakes the dirt. Tomorrow... we'll be achy for sure.
