Sitting here on this cold Ohio Valley day (10 degrees, 3 inches of new
snow) I am enjoying the new seed and plant catalogs that are arriving in
the mail daily. Since Christmas I have got about half a dozen and I'm
sure that there are more to come.

Which catalogs do you like the most and who is you favorite seed or
plant vendor?

Duh. Victoria's Secret, obviously.


and who is you favorite seed or plant vendor?


Burpee for almost all my seeds, because in 35 years of gardening, their
seeds have always exceeded the claimed parameters, and my expectations.
Cooks Garden for the more obscure greens that Burpee doesn't carry or
doesn't label clearly.

I like Vermont Bean Co. They have outstanding varities you don't find
everywhere like their Fortex pole bean. The best I have ever tried.

You folks just have to coordinate right now it is 18 F with 29 F the
high for today. It is dry but warmer is coming and I'd guess some rain
then.
I know why too. It is my fault I bought an electric snow shovel two
winters ago. Have yet to use it . Heart problems sort of made that
smart but I was not aware of the snow Jinx it would cause.

windchill of -15F. you can keep your cold weather... oh,

Cheryl, how much snow did you get New Years Day? we got
another foot. i tried walking through the veggie garden
yesterday. the snow is up to my thigh!
someone parked a Mini Cooper in my driveway & you couldn't
see it over the snowbank. that was funny.
