for breakfast I had about a half cup of grapes and 3 hard boiled eggs.
It is supposed to be nice today, but it is still only 29 out. I will be moving the grape vines out, slowly, so they can grow accustomed to the out of doors. I think I am going, once they have been in and out a week or so, during the day, to put them between the storm door and the entrance door, so they can be closer to the moving out in april. It smells fresh outside, which is nice.
I like hard boiled eggs as an alternative to frying them or fussing over getting something that takes time. I like to boil two or three meals, at least, of eggs, at once. I pick a dye to distinguish them from raw eggs. Today they came out ditto purple. It is easy, dye, vinegar, water and eggs. It isn't expensive. Besides, this way, should I prepare more eggs, I can pick another colour for the fresher eggs.
I will be back later. Today I am going to start work on the (mini) greenhouse. I know how much space I want in it, though I am not sure if I want it long or more square. I want to be able to put two complete drainage trays in it. If it were more square it (would seem) to be more steady, where as if it were longer it would seem that the wind would be able to knock it over, easier. I am having a lot fewer garden plant than I did last year. About half. And I am not growing spinach. That was a bush. I hope the spinach seeds died, though, I am sure they didn't. Seeds that mature out of doors in most garden plants seem to be able to rough the winter. But, with that system, I have gotten some very tasty tomatoes as a result.
I grabbed some tomato and hot pepper seeds from last year, dried them out, and, if I hadn't gotten all gung ho and fertilized them, some of them would still be here. I have to remember (bangs head) that seedlings don't need as much in fertilizer than the more adult plants. The ones that did survive are growing very nice.
