Victory Garden Part Deux: Despite a heartbreaking fight with aphids and worms over the weekend. The victor is yet to be determined depending on if the soap damaged a certain type of tomato plant… China Doll tried her first sugar snap pea from her snap pea teepee.  “Not too bad. Do you have more of them?” I almost teepeed myself. Now I know many of you have kids who are veggie-a-vores and shrug at this, but CD is the pickiest eater when it comes to fruit and veggies. After a multifaceted marketing campaign, she will now readily eat apples (no skin), carrots, green beans and now snap peas.  This is a huge thing. It has been over a year in the making. And the key, I think, was having her plant these peas and call them her own. Me thinks it’s Psychomalogical.
