		<title>What You Can Grow With 200 Square Feet</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;ve got approximately 200 square feet of vegetable producing beds on the south side of our house.  I&#8217;ve built three raised beds ranging from 5&#215;5 to 20&#215;5 and I keep things planted in them almost 12 months a year in the long growing season we enjoy (though enjoy is a difficult word to understand during [...]]]></description>

		<title>Early Summer Veggie Update</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This year has been pretty tough for our vegetable garden, what with the 7 inch snow on March 21st and then the last week of 100 degree heat.  However, we have managed to harvest a few things along the way.  The fava beans were probably the first thing we pulled up.  We got about 4 [...]]]></description>

		<title>Spring Herb Planting</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s getting to be growing season here in the Metroplex and after a long, especially cold and snowy winter, the gardening bug has bitten pretty hard.  We&#8217;ve got quite a few new things planted so far along with several transplants but we&#8217;ll just focus on the herbs today.  We have some herbs that are perennials, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Texas Weather</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What a difference a few weeks make.  From 12 inches of snow to 66 degrees and sunny, our winter weather has been pretty extreme this year.  The picture below is our backyard after the record snow last month.  It was absolutely beautiful and made me long to live in Colorado.  Of course, it melted in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Early Spring Garden Prep</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We started some long overdue garden work and preparation today and yesterday as we finally had a weekend with really good weather here in Wylie.  K did a lot of pruning of woody perennials as well as some boring weeding work that really needed to be done.  I got the veggie garden ready for planting [...]]]></description>

		<title>Onion Planting</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It happened today, put in 18 ft of 1015Y and red Super Sweet.  They are in the bed with the garlic which probably isn&#8217;t really getting enough sun yet but that will change soon enough.  18 ft is something north of 100 onions though many of those will be weeded out for cooking along the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Early Spring Garden</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last weekend, February 3rd to be exact, we planted our early spring garden.  We put in broccoli, red cabbage, rhubarb (mmm, strawberry-rhubarb pie), swiss chard, brussel sprouts and onions.  This week, I&#8217;m going to plant Irish potatoes in tires which helps not take up as much space in the garden since it takes until June [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Things have been slow over here at Blowing Asparagus of late but I&#8217;m looking to change that.  I&#8217;m trying out a new &#8220;Self-Improvement by avoiding self improvement&#8221; technique that involves putting off things that really need to be done by writing for 30 minutes a day.  Ok, not really, I&#8217;m actually putting off surfing the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Random Overdue Update</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Our gardens have been a mish-mash of success and failure this year, most of both I think we attribute to the rather odd weather for DFW.  After 4 months of rain in March, April, May and June, we&#8217;ve finally reverted to form with tons of hot weather.  I think this confused most plants but made [...]]]></description>

		<title>Rain, Rain Go Away</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ok, I never thought I&#8217;d say that but we&#8217;ve been getting a ton of rain this spring, upwards of 23 inches just since I started tracking it in the middle of March.  Our lakes are full, our soils are saturated and really, I think I&#8217;m starting to be ready for some heat.  Lots of our [...]]]></description>
