Garden is in

[magenta]

I spent the day putting in the garden: tomatoes, basil, green peppers, broccoli, parsley, cilantro (first time I'd tried it) and marigolds. All in containers, except the marigolds. I'm using the containers as a sort of quick "raised bed" so I don't have to do so much bending to weed and cultivate, and in the hopes that it will confuse the rabbits and squirrels. Marigolds I'm not worried about. Nothing eats marigolds, including me. They are just for decoration. And I watered everything using am empty gallon jug; containers need to be watered more. I have to find the garden hose - I know it's in the basement, somewhere.

It is now officially summer.
