Garden update

I planted some of my tomato seedlings this week--a Burpee Long Keeper, a Roma and a Super Italian Paste. Already in ground are transplanted Brandywine, Amish Paste, Purple something or other (a Frog Holler I paid $ for at Downtown Home and Garden), San Marzano. Sense a pattern? I like paste tomatoes for sauce and drying.
Also in this year's line-up: butternut squash, patty pan summer squash, blue lake beans, peas, black simpson and romaine lettuces, arugula, thyme, basil of different sorts, rosemary. Still figuring out where I will put the pie pumpkin.
I'm up to three raised beds now and have my eye on the spot where S. cleared out his horrible bamboo invasive plant creature. it gets good sun...
Also reading garden stuff at You Grow Girl and elsewhere.
