Jacquelita and I put up a garden

[kerosene]

Yes, Jacquelita is hot.

I just spent hours weeding our garden. Our plants are not nearly as nice as yours look. I think the weeds are starving them.

I think the overabundance of weeds is probably due to either a. we want to go organic with this stuff, so we haven't used any chemicals. and or b. We used cow manure for fertilizer (because of our desire to go organic) and cows eat things that have seeds, therefore there might have been seeds of weeds in the manure. Ugh. We also have a huge upcropping of Jerusalem artichokes from the last year and I don't know how to get rid of some of them without digging with a spade. Back to it tomorrow, I guess.
