Planning ahead

Dh already has ordered some seeds for the coming growing season, and we're still perusing for more. His favorite place is Johnny's, although we also have ordered from Seeds of Change, The Cook's Garden, and Territorial.

This year, we'll be going back to sweet potatoes after trying butternut squash. I love butternut squash, but it seems to take so much more effort to cook them. I haven't decided what I want to grow yet, and I've forgotten what the kids have chosen. The rest is up to DH, the master gardener (no, he doesn't have certification, but he knows more than those who do...in fact, there was a grad student in his department who did the Master Gardener program, and then kept going to DH to ask him questions about gardening).
