Dreaming of Spring Gardening in the Middle of a Wisconsin winter part 2

[jvls1942]

i ended up with two small squash. they were not the buttercups that i planted. i gave them to bro Dave.
i eat only buttercups. Annie went to the farmers' market and bought 3 buttercups. i am not going to waste a raised bed on them again. nor beans, peas and radishes.
i will try kale next year.
it looks like a deer was visiting my oat patch.
just less than a mile away there were 13 deer in a field.
my jalapeno peppers have no bite at all. i did some checking. it seems i watered them too much. they need to be stressed a little to create the heat.
another cold day before we get our 2 days of Indian summer. 35F this morning.

Last night when I took dogs out for e last time I shined my spotlight and saw that big buck we have been seeing on the game camera. It was like a Bambi moment. He was big and majestic, and quickly ran off. He was pretty close, about 100 feet away. Our mild winter last year has helped him grow well.
