Well, we tied the record for our coldest Feb. 28 today. My kids are now on spring break but it doesn't feel like spring. The weekend looks better. I see buds on the forsythia. A few daffodils are blooming and the redbuds are starting to show some color. Since I started all my lettuce indoors, I really don't want to move it out until I know it's safe. Somehow wasting seed in soil that's too cool seems better than putting out transplants I've already had growing for a month or so. I'm more attached to baby lettuces than seeds, I guess.
Went to the garden center today to get some house plants. Not only did they have cabbage, broccoli, lettuce transplants, but they also had tomato seedlings!! I don't plan to start hardening mine off until the first week of April! I wonder what they're going to do with all these little plants?
