I bought more planters and potting soil yesterday to make a home for the
tomato plant volunteers that came up. I am sure I will have tomatoes out
my ears at some point this summer. I was going to buy Kale seeds but I
was at Walmart and they don't seem to have seeds of any kind, at least
at this time of the year, so I will have to make a trip to OSH and see
if they have Kale seeds.
