Check out my zucchini! 


I have never liked gardening.  I wanted to like gardening, but - I don't know.  Maybe it's because we don't have much of a yard here.  Or maybe because I seem to kill every potted plant I own.  I'm not sure what sparked my interest, but when my mom was here in June she bought me some plants, soil and tools to help me plant a garden.  We were able to find a pretty significant area to cultivate and my plants are actually doing really well!  I have loved watering my garden every night, taking care of the plants, watching them grow.  It still baffles me whenever I find a ripe zucchini to pick.  Nature is cool.  I also have tomatoes and herbs.  I'm already planning on a much bigger garden next year with peppers and cucumbers and yellow squash and more herbs.  Still no potted plants, though.  Those things hate me.
