Planting a Garden

I planted a garden a week ago. Its my first time planting a garden from seeds. So far, I have been a lazy gardener. I buy already mature plants and pot them. This way I only need to water and rarely need to weed while still reap the benefits of fresh vegetables. 

The garden kit I purchased from Sam's Club had seeds for a salsa garden and a regular vegetable garden. We did get a bit of rain so I hope that it was just enough to help my plants and not drown them or wash them away. 

Working in the dirt, smelling the wet earth, and touching the cool soil has a very calming effect. Its very relaxing to garden even if the work is laborious. 

 I can't wait to see how it turns out!
