Wow, that a lot of potatoes. My husband worked all weekend on the gardens. Looks so good. He got a few things planted. We have to buy our seed potatoes yet. I have to get our asparagus cut today. I'm not sure how our garlic is doing. I hope my husband can get a lot of planting done before Thursday, as rain (thunderstorms) are forecasted for Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Unfortunately I'm not able to do much gardening. I take care of my flower pots and I grow tomatoes and herbs in pots. Yes, I love May too!

Kenya, I've seen this Illustrated magazines and online several places I have always wondered how well it works... I'm very interested to find out how you make out...

Hooray hooray, the 24th of May.
Its the queens birth day.
If you don't give us a holiday,
We'll all run away.

Old rhyme from childhood, telling the teacher we wanted the day off. And today is the 24th.
