Because I’m sure nobody’s tired of seeing pictures of my seedlings, right? Oh well, screw you guys. 
The large(r) plants in the middle are the tomatoes. The cucumbers are the ones further back, and the closer plants are the beans. The beans have been the slowest to germinate (just like the Seeds of Change people said).
Excellent advice on how to protect yourself from Velociraptor attacks.
Emma, Susy and I found a great Cuban bakery yesterday, Flaco’s (200 W. University Ave), which was freaking awesome. I had a ropa vieja pressed sandwich that I loved. Emma had arapa with cheese and Susy had a media noche pressed sandwich. Susy, our sometimes-resident Cuban, was impressed that they put pickles on their Cuban sandwiches and was doubly impressed that they had a window where you could order. Apparently that’s quite the sign of authenticity. For dessert, we had a guava and cream cheese pastry, as well as one with only cream cheese.
In a way that’s very clever, they sell six-packs of beer and smokes and are open after the bars close. I told Emma that anytime she wants to bring home pressed sandwiches, empanadas, and pastries for dinner is fine by me.
Three more eggs today. Nearly four dozen in the fridge. Little wonder the girls are so hungry all of the time!
When they said 6 to 14 days, they weren’t kidding! I planted these seeds on Saturday, and look at them now. The tomatoes are up and the cucumbers are just starting to break the surface. Woo!
