Speaking of Secret Gardens

My porch is a riot of color, thanks to the flowers that I planted during a warm snap in April. I planted too early — or so I thought, because I ended up having to cover them several times due to threats of frost and freezing. I put my tomatoes in at the same time — and today I picked eight grape tomatoes for dinner. Soon, I’ll haveĀ fried green tomato sandwiches.

Oh, and my corn? It’s already knee high and it’s not the Fourth of July.

I’ll be returning with two more Ireland entries soon …
