... WELCOME TO MY LAST
DAY in the GARDEN of '08
I borrowed three pairs of shears from Deborah and set out to cut the garden down on Thursday (after receiving a letter from the City reminding us exactly what our obligations were & threatening to do it for us if we didn't).

Ciao Bre-
D and I were out there today also. I've been checking over here to see what you've been up to. It truly is the end, isn't it? D pulled the remainder of the indeterminate tomato plants and brought the stakes into the garage to protect from rain so he can bundle them up tomorrow. I've been tagging plants for pulling for a few weeks now, so he doesn't have to hunt me down and ask. I got all the basils, the nasturtiums *cry*, the eggplants, and the bachelor buttons out front pulled out. I did harvest any remaining things that I thought I could use in the next few days before saying goodbye to the plants. Weirdly, it looks less awful out there now that the plants are out. The basils really started looking bedraggled and with the snow of a few days ago, the nasturtiums had started to melt. Sigh, well I guess now I'll have time to thresh all the seeds I've been harvesting and drying on plates.
Hugs,
Sorellina
