Here it is, spring has arrived and we still don't have much sunshine. Welcome to spring in the Northwest! We still do not have any flowers blooming. Even our daffodils have not bloomed and it's almost the end of March. They are still a couple of days away from showing us any color. All I can do is hang out and help my dad with the final preparations of the veggie bed.
Guess what he found while digging in the dirt? Yes, carrots from last years crop! They are perfectly good and ready to eat...if you like carrots. I don't like to eat them, I'm just happy there is a touch of color in the yard, even if it is a vegetable.
He kept on digging them up. They were there lurking in the garden all through the winter and under all that snow and ice. There were so many carrots, that mom can make carrot ginger soup again. She also has about 6 packages of carrots for the freezer.
What a nice surprise! PS...since I missed out on Wordy Wednesday yesterday, I want it to be known. My name is Jonesie and I'm a gardener.
