It\u2019s cold. After a warm November that lulled me into laziness. I didn\u2019t get everything done in the garden. So some things froze that aren\u2019t supposed to. Granted, I don\u2019t really have the infrastructure needed to keep greens in the main garden. That would probably be cold frames. The row cover is not adequate.

And I spotted these sweet little cups when cutting back fronds in the asparagus bed. They are growing on bits of straw. The largest is maybe 1\/4 inch wide. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
