time to plant

I've had too many excuses to not start on the vegetable garden. "Too cold' weather quickly turned to "too hot". All the while my tomato seeds have been growing, and now the seedlings are trying to escape from their pots. And now that John has tilled the garden for me and I'm in possession of some compost...there are no more excuses!

I got some tomato seeds from a coworker a few months ago- my first attempt at growing vegetables (or anything, really) from seed. There are 6 different varieties, each promising to grow interesting fruit, if their names are any indication:

Valley Girl
Black Prince
Black Cherry
Black Zebra
Wapsipinicon Peach
Omar's Lebanese

Here they are about a month ago:




Hopefully by the end of this weekend I'll have them in the ground!
