Vegetable gardening is a challenge, so I have been told, and I’ve taken it on for the first time this year. And then it rained, and rained, and rained some more here in Vermont. It’s very green this summer, but maybe not the most ideal for the novice gardener. No matter, my exciting news is that last night I harvested exactly enough green beans, that I grew from seeds, to give two guests green beans with their steaks. I was so proud!
