Tuesday I spent an hour outside putting back the plastic on the winter bed, clearing dead foliage and finding a surprising amount of new growth coming in on kale and chard.  The carrots are healthy and nearly two inches long but thin.  It's supposed to rain Wednesday and not freeze overnight until Thursday so I'm leaving the plastic off a couple days.  I finally got on the ball and put together the first of Volkmar's gambesons.  It surely does take longer to assemble because of two layers of cotton batt and two layers of duck.  I thought binding the edges could limit bulk but that took longer than expected as well.  Well, at least I can deliver it to Isadora at moot so it can be packed to go to Gulf.
