I always thought it would be really hard to grow my own veggies. So last year I really wanted to try. What’s the worst that could happen… nothing would grow right… Well I planted a little herb garden. Everything grew fantastic!! I had so much basil that I was freezing batches of pesto. It felt so great to just step outside and pick fresh herbs for all my cooking. I think I grew about every herb you could think of. So this year I decided to try out the veggies. I got really inspired by one of my favorite chefs, Jamie Oliver, with his cooking show Jamie at home. He made it look so easy. Plus I could save lots of money by growing my own veg. Well I bought a lot of seeds and put them in the ground. I gave them some of my time and a little water. After a little while everything started growing. It is so exciting to see the little plants get bigger and bigger everyday!! I found out that lettuce and spinach grow like weeds! The cherry tomatoes are so sweet you would think they were candy. I don’t know if its because its so fresh and pesticide free or the fact that my heart and sole was in it but they are some of the best veggies I have had! If you have never tried to grow your own herb or veg before I highly recommend it!! The picture is of a couple carrots and arugula from my garden. xoxo christy
