A quick suggestion (for what it's worth...) There are several plants that require at least two years before they begin bearing foodstuff; asparagus, most berry bushes, ginger, eggplant (a few the first year, but really let loose the next,) etc. Now is a great time to get them started. By the time your home is finished your crop will be ready to enjoy!
And speaking of 'enjoy...' I have a mug of Keemun tea to pass away the late afternoon of a perfect day! I got all my chores done, took a long walk and a short motorcycle ride, read 150 pages of my book, and now it's time to relax until dinner!
You have to keep in mind that I see the sun even on rainy days.

And artichokes. I have a ginger on my counter that has started sprouting, if I plant it will I actually end up with a plant?

I made a new banana bread recipe. I replaced the all purpose flour with the white whole wheat. At least there is some nutritional value now. I made a honey light wheat bread as well which is good. Replaced the bread flour with the white whole wheat. Massive protein and fiber boost.
Lucas slept like crap. (Sigh) Tired and I have a 10 hour day at work. Ah well, bread to start the day off is a good thing. Rooibos is made. Off I go.

I have been doing the whole wheat pastry flour for banana bread for awhile now. That along with unrefined sugar, some almond essence, cinnamon and cloves gives me a banana bread that people beg for
