weed-fest a success!

On Saturday a bunch of friends came over and pitched in big time to help me weed my yard. It was really wonderful, having everyone over and really working hard.

I feel so lucky to have friends come out and help me. If anyone needs help in their yards, I'm so there. I'm way into the philosophy of many hands make light work, and weed-fest really proved that.

I got so into it that I forgot to take pictures in progress. But here's a nice picture of two bucket's worth of weeds, with the now happily weed-free bamboo section in the background. Yay!



Along the way with the weeding, Beth noticed that the zucchini plants are already bearing fruit! And Karen dug up one of the first potatoes from the garden:



I sauteed the zucchini and petite potato in olive oil and some garlic last night for dinner. Delish!
