THAT DAMNED CEMENT TRUCK IS IN MY BACKYARD AGAIN


I'm thinking what sparked this latest project was the time I came home from grocery shopping and complained forever about having just spent a dollar on one green pepper and over $2.60/pound for tomatoes.

Yeah, that would do it.

THE BIRTH OF THE VEGETABLE GARDEN

J: "I'm going to put in a vegetable garden."
C: Whiney voice "Why? You have so many other projects that are so close to being done...."
J: "Because. It's crazy to spend the kind of money we do on vegetable when we can grow them ourselves."
C: "You can grow them. I can't grow things. I can put them in the ground, if they survive, yay."
J: "Well, I'm putting in a vegetable garden."
C: "Whateves"

So my idea of putting in a vegetable garden in 5 easy steps

1. Find a flat area in your yard
2. Dump some dirt on it
3. Shove some plants/seeds in the dirt. Water.
4. Watch the deer, bunnies and birds enjoy themselves at Cafe ala Hartigan Vegetable Garden.
5. Run to the grocery store and buy veggies.

Johns Idea of a Vegetable garden involves something that looks like crop circles and requires the cement truck to visit my backyard again.

Ok. That's it. You have a frickin' god for a husband.

I want him for myself (would he be ok with a man as a wife?), and I want him to build me a house and a yard just like yours.

And if that doesn't work, at least create a photo gallery of all your house pics. THen I can live vicariously as I pace my tiny apartment in uptown.

Hey 'wuts up'. so I told the J someone thinks he's a god and wanted him for himself.

He said "Cool"

I said "It's a guy"

He said "So. He thinks I'm a god."

I guess calling him crazy all the time ain't winning me any points.

You have a farm in your backyard and you need a fenced off vegetable garden?

You honestly don't think any of this was my idea do you? No, it was not. It will however become my responsibility I can pretty much guarantee that.
