And the replanting begins...

OK... so I was discouraged, a little under the weather and it got cold, so... the garden was on hold for a moment. I have been out in my little garden this morning; hoeing and weeding and assessing the damage from the fallen tree, the cold weather and the wee tiny beasties that are eating my seeds. I do have several eggplants, peppers, tomatoes, a few clumps of lavender, spinach, butter crunch lettuce, garlic and a half dozen sugar snap peas. My bush beans are having a hard time- only one survivor as far as I can tell, but... I have plenty of seeds...

Anyway- the rows are hoed and it is looking nice again.

Speaking of hoes (which are basically knives on a stick as far as I can tell) do I sharpen with my little hand mower blade sharpening tool or with a whet rock / oilstone like I do kitchen knives?

Be back later with pictures...
