Easter Weekend

It was a very busy Easter weekend. Major home renovations in the kitchen and a 15 seat Easter Dinner kept us moving the whole time. Every one had a great Easter. After things settled I was able to sneak outside and put some spinach and broccoli I bought Saturday out in the cold Frame I built this winter.
I also bought some Perlite and Vermiculite

I am going to add this to my peat moss. My lettuce looks really scrawny and I want to see if aerating the soil will help the rooting.The chives we planted last year made it and they look really happy after a week in the frame.

Finally, I planted the onion transplants that I planted too deep last year and didn't come up till late summer. I don't hold out hope that they will produce but companion wisdom has said onions and strawberries get along. Hopefully we'll have some tasty strawberries this here. Here is a fuzzy picture of my sleeping strawberry patch.
