when all through the house
barely a creature was stirring, and definitely not a mouse!
just a manic veggie gardener raising a clatter
of spilling seeds on the counter
his wondering eyes gazed upon early season trades
with hopeful thoughts of the season hereafter
True Red Cranberry beans & Soldier beans from Kath @ Veg Heaven
Borlotto Lingua Di Fuoco beans & Victorian Climbing peas from Gary @ Reads Allotment Retreat
Cascadia Sugar Snap peas from Laura @ The Modern Victory Garden
Tail of Tears beans, Bright Lights chard & Red Tropea onions from Daphne @ Daphne's Dandelions
I am so glad the peas finally arrived! I was beginning to worry that they were lost in transit.
