Garden Inventory

I thought I would quickly list all the stuff that is currently in the garden and where it is located.  Here is a layout diagram of the garden and for reference this is pretty much the same orientation as the picture from my kitchen window below.

Version 2.0

In an effort to combat boredom while I wait to start a new job I decided to give the blog a much needed facelift as the previous template I was using was really stale, especially for subject matter like a garden.  I took this template from freecsstemplates.org and then adapted it for Blogger.  There are still some artifacts left over from the old template such as the green and orange bullet point icons and some fonts in the sidebar and comments, but I think they look ok.

If anything happens to look messed up or you have anything to say about the changes please let me know via the comments or by email.

Free Lettuce

Our garden has become overrun with rogue arugula and butter lettuce seedlings.  The arugula is growing like a weed all over the property and the butter lettuce has been popping up throughout the garden for a while now.  I decided to salvage some of the lettuce, especially those growing in the garden paths.  In short time I pulled 30 seedlings out and replanted them but there are still tons more in the garden.  I don't know what I am going to do with all of these as we can't possibly keep them all.

The potatoes we planted a month ago have been sprouting and a left over from last year popped up in one of the middle garden beds.  Many of the herbs are in flower/seed right now and you can see a few of them in the picture below.  My camera sucks but on the front-left of the herb garden is Chives (w/ purple flowers on the tips), behind that is some Sage and behind that is the Rosemary.  As for the other side I am not 100% but there is a Curry plant, more Sage, Thyme, Oregano and some other stuff.  I will have to get a better picture and also figure out what is in my own garden.  Also do some weeding, it is starting to look like a jungle again.
