Rampion, Rampion...


For our first serious venture into gardening, we decided on lettuce, turnips, and radishes. The lettuce is ready, and the radishes are ready. They are the most beautiful radishes I have seen ever, and big ones, too. I'm impressed. That's what happens when you fill your old sandbox with miraclegro potting soil and plant radish seeds in it, I guess. We have a serious bumper crop of big, beautiful, red radishes.

Unfortunately, the boys have decided they don't like radishes. (The lettuce is still loved by Andy, but if you want some, come help yourself.) So... what does one do with a bumper crop of radishes? I am seriously considering learning to carve those cute little flower garnisher thingees. I have plenty to practice on.
