Friday vegetable blogging
Here’s a new feature of Deep Blade Journal—Friday vegetable blogging. Something has to break up the utter seriousness of this thing, so for the next two or three months, readers will get a neighborhood garden progress report. Kevin Drum, when he was Calpundit, used to have Friday cat blogging. I used to enjoy that, so I’m loosely basing this on his old bit.
Today’s story is about snap peas. Lots of cool, damp weather has driven my behind-the-garage pea planting crazy this year. Plus, I installed a much-improved climbing fence back in May. I’ve never had them so tall and strong—they’re starting to keel over at the top from the weight of the fruit.

Thanks, Deep Blade, for allowing us to lighten up just a bit on Fridays with a look at your garden. My garden also has an abundance of snap peas, so at least we have that going for us so far this year.

So good to hear from Tammy. Are you hungry for peas? Give ‘em a chance!
