If I ever decide to plant butter beans again, somebody talk me out of it!

The evil butterbeans are taking theor revenge! We've had a bit of a dry spell, but my hopes that it would kill the bitterbeans were to no avail. They are climbing up a crepe myrtle, tearing down the support fence, and producing like crazy. I shelled a few, but never cooked any. I guess I'll just save the dried ones to eat through the winter.

I planted red potaoes today on the ex-pea row, and a little lettuce on the dying pepper row. Hopefully the potatoes will sprout. I have no doubt about the romaine lettuce sprouting. It was like a weed this spring! I am planning to plant the lettuce in alternating weeks so it doesn't all come in at once. These seeds are from the flowers of the spring leftovers.
I also transplanted some of the marigolds from garden front row to pots on the porch. This should give more room for lettuce, broccoli, or cauliflower.

I'm supposed to be exercising, since I'm 13 weeks prego and have been very grouchy. This
morning's potato-row-hoeing definitely got my blood pumping and increased my mood level quite a bit. I'm thankful
to have a garden today.
