developing garden stress

whoever said gardening is relaxing needs to give me a pep talk. right now i am feeling a little overwrought about the veggie garden. i have the seeds and feel like i MUST get the seedlings done this weekend. oh the pressure!!!!!! reading and reading and more reading on what is the right seedling soil mixture, soil blocks vs. containers, grow lights vs. the window, spending lots of money vs. going with what i got, the decisions never end. and then dealing with frost and temperature is just about to kill me. aaaaahhhhhh!!!!!!!

but in other news, the chuck wagon cook off was super fun and as soon as i can drag myself away from the tremendous list of things i need to do around the house, i will tell you all about it.

I'd just start the seeds on the counter and if they work, great. If not, you can always try again in the actual garden once the danger of frost has passed (not this week).
