Sprouts!

Last night I planted the tomato seeds. I know, I was supposed to wait one more week but I only have so much patience for this stuff.  The good news is that some of the first round seeds have started to sprout.

Like the cilantro...

And oregano...

They are tiny and out of focus, but they are there!

The thyme is one of the vintage 1998 seeds, it seems to be coming along just fine...

It's Sideways Thyme, a special variety. ;)

The jalapenos are thinking about it, they'll pop any day now. Lucy was under foot for most of this, until she figured out that there wouldn't be any handouts. At that point she retired to the couch.

This is why we can't have nice things.

All of the other seeds we are going to plant this year are direct sow, nothing to do now but hope the one's I've started sprout and wait for Spring. This weekend the weather is supposed to be nice so I guess I'll do the things that should have been done weeks ago, like take down the plastic fence around the raised beds and roll up the garden hose. I'll try to fit some of that in between naps.
