Blue Potatoes


The blue potatoes I planted earlier in the year are doing great! Looks like I'll be able to dump the pots out for harvest around the 1st of June. I'm already looking forward to potato salad, and garlic roasted potatoes to name a few.
The alpacas have settled in and are enjoying their grazing rye. I have begun using the "Alpaca Soil Conditioner" all over my garden! The plants that received it early are looking great and I already have tomatoes growing. I'll be planing cucumbers soon along with squash and zucchini ( although I must admit I did plant one each of squash and zucchini that are already coming up!
It's going to be a great year in the garden!
I'll be having Spinach in a salad tonight....
To make it use fresh spinach, toss with some Parmesan cheese and walnuts and then mix in a good dressing ( I'm using the Gerard's Spinach Salad dressing tonight) and I'll top this salad off with a freshly poached egg!

  1. I can't wait to toss these babies in some olive oil with herbs and roast them. Maybe as a side to a tasty sammich... hmm...
