The squirrels didn't get all the peas

The snow peas I planted two weeks ago have been slow to sprout. Then again, it's been snowing a lot, so I guess I should cut them some slack. Anyway, yesterday afternoon, the first folded leaves emerged. From here they'll grow quickly.
What I'm really excited about though, are my fava beans. You can't buy fava beans in Colorado Springs. I had never had one until I had dinner at the Penrose Room last spring. They were divine. I've been dreaming of them ever since. And since they fit my garden plan of being easy to grow but hard to buy (like good basil and real tomatoes) I planted them. We'll see how they do.
