    Wow Cheryl, your growing season is so far ahead of ours. My tomatoes are still in the cold frame & inches tall, lol. I'm happy for you and want to hear all about that first tomato harvest. Preferably with good bread & mayo involved.

    I totally get what you are saying- I get excited about every little change in my garden.

    Darlene, my tomatoes have been outside for probably close to a month now. I did have to cover them one night, but that was all and they are doing great!

    That's great. I'd be happy too. I love seeing my peonies blooming now. It is the little things.

    This reminded me of your thread:

    It was one of the most bewitching sights in the world
    to observe a hill of beans thrusting aside the soil, or
    a rose of early peas just peeping forth sufficiently
    to trace a line of delicate green. ~Nathaniel Hawthorne
