Is it any coincidence that last night I dreamed of desperately trying to shut and lock windows against ravens trying to get in?*



* Honestly! I did! The locks were so hard to catch!

Plants: not dead yet!

The peas are, for the most part, thriving, much to my surprise. Nine seedlings came in a compartmented plastic pot-thing, and I managed to break or injure several stems while pulling them out, so I was not optimistic. But most of them are actually growing! I need to get pea-stakes of some ilk, since I may actually need them.

Strawberry: I see nine (nine!) teeny little green baby strawberries! And it's madly putting out blossoms, too! So I think the next step is to find some bird-netting to protect it from the birds. XD There is also something that finds the leaves delicious: two leaves are decorated with lots of half-moon cutouts on their edges.

Tomatoes: Both plants are thriving, and one is starting to put out little blossoms. So it looks like I may need to get a couple of tomato cages. (Sensing a theme here? Not bothering to get equipment that I might not need, back when I first got the plants? XD)

The onions are lengthening, the basil has finally decided it's going to grow and is doing so with gusto, the cilantro is ebullient, and my sweet cayenne raised from seed has deigned to put out another leaf. The chives aren't doing much at the moment, and the bell pepper and dill are pretty much as they were when I planted them, and naturally the potatoes are still bare patches of dirt with, I expect, rotting pieces of potato buried in them.* But overall, successful so far!




* I find being pessimistic about this sort of thing increases my enjoyment greatly when something actually doesn't die.

20 min. on bike 3.5 mi. Total: 847 mi. From Rivendell: 451 mi. THE BLINDFOLD IS OFF. Too bad all I have to look at is elves, which I've totally gone off of after miles and miles of blindfolded trekking.
