In the Bleak Midwinter

It was 85 degrees today. I also harvested 15 tomatoes today, in January. I did not use any season extenders. Gardening in So Cal should be a crime. Yesterday I dropped $200 on seeds, plus I've saved quite a few seeds from my own plants. I have planned out most of the spring garden and this week I start construction on a new 4' x 10' bed. If this weather continues, I am going to explode from happiness, and fresh veggies.
