The constant gardener

When my unrepentant, heathen soul shuffles off this mortal coil, I’m sure to be condemned to unceasing Sisyphean labor. Nope, no boulder involved. Just an eternity of dandelions, each as big around as my thumb, deeply rooted, and regrowing two heads for every one I cut off.



Which would be a lot like working in the yard now, except, ya know, without the brimstone.

On a lighter note: spring! yay!



And finally…



we’ve got wild asparagus. Since this is a wholesome family blog, you and your dirty mind can make up with your own “or are you just happy to see me” joke.

    ooh, asparagus. Can you eat the dandelion greens, or are they too bitter?
