Gazing into my newborn daughter's sleeping face, tearing up with the cascade of love spilling out of me, and she suddenly frowns and rips a massive fart

I had given up on pretty much all of these plants and I cannot capture how excited I am to see them actually start developing after sitting around for an entire summer

Just wandering through the garden yelling "holy shit!" at various intensities

Omfg I thought this thing was dead!!! I was gonna throw it into the compost pile last week!!!!

Eyyyy mamma mia manja dis marinaaaaara

Lol good lord the vegetables

I'm also doing the rutabaga and carrots but those are less pretty, I planted them too closely and waited too long to thin so I'm fucking a lot of them up, sorry my smol frends

Thinning out the kale patch today. I kinda hate doing this since they're all healthy and viable plants, but it gives the others the space and nutrients they need. Gotta bulk up before I try to overwinter them. On the plus side, now we've a TON of baby kale leaves

This is a gamble but I got so many dang cukes! Heck

My large picklesons

Carrots starting to come in! Some still pretty small but they're developing nicely; these were just a couple that I pulled to check and thin out the row. These will supposedly over-winter here so I think I'll leave a few and try for some seed next year https://store.experimentalfarmnetwork.org/collections/beets-sweet-potato-slips/products/over-the-rainbow-carrot-mix-minnesota-over-wintered

Koronis purple beans! These were really productive and easy to grow, even though I messed up and pulled some way early. Highly recommend

Developing out this take to counter @grendelsmumm@twitter.com's anti-dinosaur energy

The one thing that stupid Anthropocene article got right was that dinosaurs could absolutely have developed a high-energy civilization and we'd have no idea

Pretty certain I can't be the first person to think this
