Theives

Although many times I've looked at a garden and thought to myself that I'd love to have ___ plant in my yard, I never would have stolen one off of someones property.

Last night, someone came and stole all of the medicinal marijuana we had all spent our whole spring and summer nurturing.  We're trying to figure out who it was, and it hit James hard, especially since they came onto the property while everyone was home.  James went in the backyard, and by the light of a flashlight dug up all the dirt in the back, tilling the stems, leaves and roots into the soil.  We're thinking about a winter garden of some sort, but don't know if we should deal with the cost.

Kale

Mindy bought some Kale from Wal-Mart for James and I to plant in the yard as a little miniture winter garden.  I'm not sure how they will do, but I'm pretty confident that it won't be to bad.  And if it doesn't work out, there's always next year. 

We've got a table outside the trailer full of herbs, which at the moment seem to be doing well.  Our rosemary bloomed over the weekend and looks beautiful.  We pruned back the Pineapple Sage with the help of Chris Delk, and I hope it doesn't kill it.  That would just break my heart.  We've got the leaves in the fridge and I'll need to find a use for them before they go kaput.  We'll need to bring the herbs in soon here, but I want to let them get as much sun as possible. 

I read that rose hips are good for harvesting around now... I wonder if I could find them somewhere nearby.  I checked Mindy's rose bush, but didn't see any hips... *shrug*
