First snow!!!

Last night I had my first snow. Wasn't a lot of it but it did cover up everything with a thin layer of white. This afternoon when I came back from work I went have a look at my lettuce and spinach plants. The smaller leaves I left were still in perfect condition. Even after spending a whole night covered by snow. This is pretty amazing for a comestible plant! I'm gonna grow much more next Spring and Fall.

Day two...

My second day of not spending money. Going pretty good I must say. But before I start I just want to show the salad I made for supper. All homegrown here. It was the best salad I ever ate =)
Now back to my second day! Well I worked all day and once I finished I was pretty tired. But I didn't feel like a coffee so that didn't bother me. I got home and went into my garden and cut myself lettuce and spinach leaves...oh and cherry tomatoes. My sister had called to see if I wanted to have dinner at her place. But since it would've cost me gas and fries (she wanted me to go get some) I decided against it. So I'd say that so far this weekend I already saved like 10 bucks. Wich is pretty cool. Later on I think I am going to have trouble with one thing . I'm running low on store bought compost and moss for my indoor gardening. We'll see...is it a waste of money if it's for my indoor gardening experiments!?
