but wait, there’s more!
After classes today I met a friend downtown and stopped by the Athens Farmers Market!
I love the market, all of the farmers are so friendly and willing to share their expertise on gardening. I got some advice on my container garden from the growers of these BEAUTIFUL heirloom peppers!
When I got home I decided to harvest a few of my sweet potato plants. I have been growing a few plants in our front yard, I dug up one a while ago and they were still pretty tiny. I thought I would give it another try!
I dug and I pulled and I lifted up…two TINY sweet potatoes! Bummer!
A little further down I came across another spud!
This one was a keeper! Can’t wait to make something tasty with these!
I am mixing up the marathon training schedule this week. Which is fine as long as I get it all in! Monday was such a beautiful day I felt like a longer run so I ran a fabulous five miles and swapped my 3 miler for today. Have I lost you yet? And since Lauren is leaving for Auburn on Friday (for College Gameday! War Eagle!) we have decided to do our long run on Thursday night. I have updated my schedule to keep me straight!
Halfway into week 2! Watch out Orlando!
God Bless and all the best!

Your sweet potatoes look great! Almost makes me want to try to see if I like them again…:)
I bet it feels great to cross off every day on the marathon training schedule – way to go!!
