David spontaneously decided we needed to plant a garden. I was so against the whole idea because it seemed a like a lot of work and I assumed I would be doing all of it. But it was actually a lot of fun to plant and the girls have done really well at keeping it watered. And I've enjoyed picking fresh lettuce for dinner salads.
We planted romaine lettuce, iceberg lettuce, spinach, broccoli, cauliflower and carrots. We've gotten a lot of iceberg and romaine lettuce so far. The spinach has almost all died, which is a disappointment because that was what I was most excited about. The rest are all still growing and not ready for picking yet. We've been quite impressed with our meager attempt at a garden!
UPDATE: This was our first crop of spinach, broccoli and cauliflower.
