"A Roll of the Dice"
I finally got my sugar snap peas planted. The strawberries are weeded too.
Like a man said to me yesterday at the store, "It's like a roll of the dice," referring to planting in our state. You just never know what the weather will bring.

Mud Brings Joy
May is the month that Hubby and I both celebrate our birthdays - "the Good." I have no idea what I will do for Hubby yet.
It's the month I get to start planting flowers and the vegetable garden. Although I can start planting peas (which are already late), I cannot plant my flowers until after Mother's Day. Even so, I may wait just a bit later. Last year we got a second frost, and lost much from garden(s).
