What a great weekend! The weather was amazing and treats were everywhere, starting with some freshly baked croissants by the
Baklava Queen. They were every bit as amazing as the croissants I experienced in France. MMMMMMM!

This lovely breakfast was followed by conversation regarding the Great Garden Project of 2010. I have no experience in the world of vegetable gardens, so with the help of my in-laws, my hubby and the aforementioned Baklava Queen, (aka the
Grain Maker and my planting guru) I am taking the first steps of an adventure in growing my own food.

First step, prepare the ground! Thankfully we are starting with great soil that has been utilized in the past, but it has been overgrown with weeds for years. After much raking and removal of brush, the task of yanking these beasts from the ground commenced with the aid of a tractor. Yes, I think I landed on my bum at least twice.
Grrrrr! Of course, I'm poking away at the Woolykins at the same time, since
Oddmall is only 5 weeks away (eek!). They are starting to resemble a small army...
