Gardening Floyd: Down on the Farm, April '12

I didn't disappear since the last Dark Days Challenge post.  I've been putting in 6-8 hour days in the gardens then coming back to the house, eating supper, maybe making it through a movie but more often falling asleep during said movie, or just going straight to bed.  I've discovered to my dismay that, at 55, the sore muscles of spring don't recover as fast as they use to, if at all, and the best way to deal with them is aspirin before work, and a long hot shower and aspirin after work, supper, and a book in bed.

Michael had last week off and he took over cooking supper.  He's been entranced with Asian and Indian flavors so it was a real treat to come in from the garden to an already prepared dinner quite different from my style.  Michael's Dan-Dan Noodles rock!

Here's some of what we've been doing.  There's so much more I didn't get pictures of!
