This year's sweet potato plant has already given me a couple of slips. |
They are ready to plant. |
...and my celery end has sprouted and is ready to plant. Check out directions at Farm Bell Recipes at Chickens in the Road. I hope to get a few more going before garden planting time. |
This was Levi's 1st Sunday Night Supper with the whole family. He slept through all the noise. Big brother Brayden walked into the house *sing-songing* "I got a baby. I got a baby." |
We couldn't figure out if Zoe was left or right handed tonight. Or maybe Grandma's chicken soup was just extra good! |

Looks like a wonderful Sunday with the family! I never knew you could start celery like that! Interesting...
You're a lucky lady to have so much of your family around you and also admired to host Sunday night supper!
What a beautiful group of children!
Looks like a perfect Sunday evening. You know Grandma's soup must be good when you eat it with two utensils!
love that you have family dinner nights! :)
Such beauty and life!!
Is that a "grocery store" sweet potato or a "seed" sweet potato? How long has it been growing before you got slips & do you put it in dirt or just water? I'd LOVE to have sweet potatoes this year!
Carolyn Renee.....Last year I started one from the grocery store. This one is from last summer's crop. I poke toothpicks in it and keep 1/2 of it in water till it starts to root good (and sprouts good) then I transplant it to dirt. As it grows I keep taking slips off, start them in water, and then plant in dirt. I'm hoping to have about 20 of them for the garden.
....oh, maybe 2-3 weeks before the slips really start growing. (Get it started now :-)
How fun that you all are able to get together for Sunday dinner at Grandma's house! The kids are always so cute! :)
Kudos for your celery and sweet potato plants!
Your grandbabies are just darling!
I'm impressed with the celery!
Duh!!!! I never thought about how you grow celery.
So wonderful that your family gets together for Sunday dinner!
I'm impressed with your sweet potatoes and celery! I would love to try this! Thanks for sharing and I'm looking forward to seeing your garden progress throughout the year.
I will have to share the celery link with our garden growing son. Then see how it does in ND!! Interesting photos.
Family dinners make me smile and yes, I am sure the soup was just that good!
