Everyone likes fresh produce, but the best vegetables are those grown in your own garden. Though our garden won’t be planted for at least 6 more weeks, we do get a little springtime treat: asparagus. It is among the first green we see poking up through the dead detritus of winter. There wasn’t much yet, but it will come. We just had to sneak in what we could today (coupled with the ever un-popular brussels sprouts.)
Incidentally, my grocery cart was laden with vegetables today. I’m ready to try just about anything…well, with the exception of okra. Sorry, just not a fan.
We also finally posted our star chart. The whole family can put stickers on the veggies they’ve tried. You have to have at least 30 veggies by the end of the month to qualify for the prize-winning family outing. Not sure what we’re doing yet, but it will be something crazy fun, I’m sure! (And probably not include any vegetables!)
