Tonight is the last night of a fluke cold snap- the last night that will have temps in the teens. Forecast is much better from now on.

I've started direct seeding of some of the cool loving veggies...
spinach, kale, lettuces, some carrots, beets, scallions. Gotta run out and buy some radish and bok choy seeds- forgot to order them.
Due to you guys' comments last Fall, I now am planting both White Russian kale and Winter Red Russian kale for the first time. I got some very interesting new lettuces to try, too, along with my favorites (black-seeded Simpson, speckled Troutback, and mixed color butterhead).
Just planting one or two small 3' rows of each thing right now, will be doing succession planting this time around even more than i did last year. I'm tightening up the space between each row too- now only leaving 3" between rows instead of 4" or 5".
It's such a huge luxury to have my big new vegetable garden space this year!

Meanwhile, I'm still sprouting jars of alfalfa sprouts in the kitchen on a constant basis ever since December- it's been so nice to have absolutely fresh cool crunchy green sprout sandwiches all winter! Probably the biggest bargain out there, nutrition-wise, is growing your own sprouts. I keep two jars rotating at different stages of growth.
