First harvest of the season!

I just wandered out into the veggie garden, in search of our first harvest and found something! A plump pink radish nestling slightly under the soil. I can tell when a radish is ready pretty much by just looking at the leaves…sad i know, but i spotted it, picked it, washed it and shared it with the Mrs. Radishes are much nicer early as they seem to get spicier as time goes on. The big crunchy ones we had in the ground late last summer almost burnt our tongues out. The next harvest will probably be some form of leaves followed by either baby turnips or potatoes.

Either way, i know that come the end of May, our little patch of earth will looka lot busier than it does now!
