Argh!.... and Dirt!

I have had the worst morning. I'm now sitting here listening to Phish trying not to think about it. Let's think about something happy, like plants! Plants are good. If I knew where the camera was I'd take pictures of my sprouts, unfortunately, I don't know where it is.

As of now I've started 5-6 of each of these:
Brandywine tomatoes
Amish paste tomatoes
Hungarian heart tomatoes
Mini red bell peppers
Bull nose bell peppers
Napolean sweet peppers

And tomorrow I'm going to plant:
Green arrow peas
Empress beans
Dragon Carrots (they're purple!)
Possibly Potatoes (if the nursery has them, they're a last minute decision)
Possibly Onions (see above)

Once the danger of frost has passed I'll be planting:
Parade Cucumbers (good for pickling!)
A Lettuce Mix
Squash
Zucchini

And in the flower department I'll be growing:
Nasturtium
Double Moss Rose Flower
Marigolds (to ward of wee pests)
Whatever else catches my eyes

There, that worked, I'm a bit more calm now. Thank you for listening.
