Last week some volunteer radish appeared much to my surprise. I didn't even have radish in the garden last year! Today was a sunny 80 degrees. Once I arrived home from work I rushed to my garden to see how all of my plant babies grew in this beautiful weather. I was very surprised to see that one of the largest cabbage now has a purple tint on the tiny head. One of the tallest sugar snap peas had a beautiful flower. One whole row of pole beans shot up through the dark dirt! I also harvested some of my salad bowl lettuce for dinner tonight. Nothing hits the spot quite like tuna salad rolls with fresh lettuce.

I also have many flowers on my tomato plants. Last year I was told by a friend to cut off the early flowers until the plant is much larger. I decided to let the flowers be and to only trim certain stems. The next few weeks will keep me very busy. Tomorrow I need to tend to my cucumbers.
