It's almost time.....

...to start gardening! YAY! The countdown is on! Right now, if you are anything like the rest of us Mavens you are nose deep in those beautiful seed catalogs. I've been droolingover melons. M0on & Stars, or Jenny Lind? Should I try an exotic like a Jelly melon or a White Wonder? And then I am perplexed by cucumbers. I just want the long skinny burpless ones, like the English variety that I used to get at the grocery..... and lets not even start talking tomato's here.... pink, purple, yellow, black, white.... oh yeah, and red. What's a Maven to do?
My mouth is watering at the explosion of flavors that are bound to come this summer. Beans, carrots, squash, potatos, oh my!
I am so glad that I've decided to become an heirloom gardener. I am so excited to be part of something so big and yet so simple. I simply cannot wait for the outcome! How about you?
