We are impatient people. This whole gardening thing is great but we never know when things are done. Carrots for example…how do you know. I know I can go by what the packet says but that’s not fun!!!

premature picked carrot-a funky one at that!

Potatoes. Our neighbor, also my CEO told me….”Shana, wait until the leaves fall over”. Ha ha!!! Ours are still gorgeous, standing and blooming little white flowers but our curiousity got the best of us:

I LOVE how you can see the starter potato! There were a couple of other teeny baby reds, too that fell off before the picture

Cantaloupe. I mean, it was no longer hairy (I mean fuzzy) or green. How do we know????? It definitely was NOT ready. Bummer.
