Sign of Spring: B's in the garden

My Darling B finally got some time to take her roto-tiller into the garden after work today and get almost half the plot turned over, while the dandelions looked on and trembled.

Those guys knew what they were talking about

"The violent destruction of life and property incident to war, the continual effort and alarm attendant on a state of continual danger, will compel nations the most attached to liberty to resort for repose and security to institutions which have a tendency to destroy their civil and political rights. To be more safe, they at length become willing to run the risk of being less free."

Alexander Hamilton, Federalist #8

Our First Trip To The Market This Season

My Darling B hands over the veggies she's selected for purchase at the Dane County Farmer's Market.

The market had beautiful weather for its first day back on the square. B has been counting the days for its return since about Christmas.
