EAT YOUR VEGETABLES: Maryann James posts on vegetable gardening every Tuesday.
Remember when I said I had no buds? Well, the balcony garden is finally blossoming. The hot peppers (above) are blooming all over the place -- despite what Rodale's warned about already blooming plants -- and the cucumber blooms (left) are looking a little fragile but determined to hold on. My sunflowers (below), a dwarf variety great for containers, have brightened up the balcony.
Susan Reimer has spent 16 years writing about raising kids - among other topics - in her column for The Baltimore Sun. And every time son Joseph or daughter Jessie passed another milestone - driver's license, college, wedding or a move to a new military duty station - she has planted another garden. Now she will be writing about those gardens - and yours - here on Garden Variety.
