OK a couple pictures.
My sugar snap peas are looking like plants now, instead of a mass of dirt with a cage sticking up, LOL. They're rather pretty and i can't wait to harvest. I hope that they grow fast enough to get a good harvest. it gets very hot, very fast here.
My strawberry pot of spinach and lettuce is doing alright. Some of the places are empty though and i'm not sure if they're not growing or if i missed a few spots. The rest are sprouting, but apparently they take longer than i thought they did to grow. they're less than 1/3 the size of the snap peas. I MIGHT pull them up and plant herbs in there, but i can't decide what i want to do.
I bought a cherry tomato plant, which i planted yesterday and some marigolds to keep the bugs away from them (it sort of worked last year) and then I got some Oregano, sage, thyme, and parsley. I have a large rosemary bush growing on the side of my apartment already. I will be planting basil with my tomatoes, because they really like eachother. I also planted some extra chives, because they did so well. The mint that i planted last year is thriving (of coarse) and so my place is greening up little by little.
I want to plant some cucumber too, but i'm not sure where i want it at, i'm going to have to make a trip into fresno to see what else they have. I don't want more tomatoes for sure, just the cherries.

About Me
- Samji
I'm small and quiet but please don't call me cute. When you call me cute, i know you're not taking me seriously. I can't take a compliment, but I give them freely.
I'm a wife and mother. My family is my life. I love my boys. My husband and I have a five year old son who is the light of our lives.
I love reading. I'm the nerd who brings books to parties so I can get some reading done. I like suspense and fantasy mostly. I have a special place in my heart for vampire novels.
I write a lot. Blogs, fan fiction, short stories. Moonlighted as a freelance writer for a while, but mostly i write for fun. I love telling stories and i can write better than I speak.
I am an internet addict.
I don't get along with other humans well IRL, but on the internet we're good. I'm shy, not antisocial. Alright, I'm a little anti-social, but not rude. Never rude. I'm just very introverted and sarcastic. I mostly keep to myself.
