Grass

Right before the dinner we hosted for our daughter and son-in-law we bought two types of fast growing grass seed for the backyard and quickly spread it out.  Then it rained for a week.  Our gorgeous green grass was thick and beautiful.  The only problem was, the seeds all moved to my garden area during the rain.  Still bare spots in the yard were a drastic contrast to the luscious green grass growing in my garden.

Now we hated the idea of plowing it up but we couldn't find the vegetable plants I planted!  I didn't know what was a weed and what was a vegetable.  I called the garden my "surprise garden."  I didn't know what, if anything, would come up and be edible.

Another valuable lesson learned.
