Finally — a weekend to spend outdoors! If anything, the weather has actually been TOO hot for my taste. (What ever happened to 60-70-degree spring weather? What’s up with going directly from freezing to 80+ degrees??)

First up, Saturday morning, Kate drove downtown to deliver our cookies and banana bread to our local MoveOn.org Bake Sale. Here’s a glimpse at the bake sale itself as they were getting set up.

And here are a few of the goodies that we contributed:

Meanwhile, I started plotting out a location for our vegetable garden in the yard. This is the sunniest corner:

My intent is to dig up two long skinny plots with a grassy path down the center so that I can access everything without having to tromp through the dirt all the time. I’m not the best at estimating how much space we’ll need, so I may end up putting our herbs in with a flower bed on the other side of the yard. This area will be home to tomatoes, beans, peppers, carrots, zucchini, cucumbers, and melons.
