Saturday Summary

Today was about barrels & chickagirls & leeks...

I finished the rain barrel.

  

  Photo is loading  The upper spigot is an overflow spigot that will be hooked up to a second barrel later on. The bucket is there for that purpose right now.
  
The girls followed me around the yard a bit.
 
 
 About two weeks ago, I saved the leek bottoms and set them in water for a few days. They sprouted new roots.
 
I planted them and noticed today that they have sprouted new growth through the dirt. We have some more waited to reroot in the kitchen and I will plant those in a few days. This makes me happy!  :)

Yummy!
