Blog Entry 66 of 66 The Caffiend

I love coffee. That pretty much is all anyone really needs to know about me. I am a caffeine fiend - or a caffiend, a word I concocted about two minutes ago. I have a hot cup of Seattle's Best 6th Avenue Bistro sitting in front of me right now. I don't know a lot about coffee, but I can grind it and make it and drink it like it's going out of style. I usually have a cup of coffee in my hand. I suppose my character and personality do surge deeper than the 10-cup level. I dig fine art. I love to paint and draw. I like to sit in my living room and play the guitar (and drink coffee) on Saturday mornings. Hanging out with my wife Elise and daughter Laurel...those times are the best. I love fly-fishing, stepping into a clear stream and setting the day-to-day grind adrift. And I can sit and stare out the window at the mountains for a really long time. Elise says I'm "watching out." I think it's my way of meditating. Or maybe it's caffeine overdose.

A quick garden update. Our blue potato patch has become quite a hit. Neighbors stop to talk about it.
The plants are knee high. They've bloomed and are forming some nice spuds in the soil.
I dug one up Wednesday morning. It was about the size of a golf ball. The color was more like purple. And this one had a flavorful, sharp taste similar to, but not as hot as, a radish.
Our spinach and chard produce enough greens for a fresh salad for three of us every few days. And the tomatoes in our little greenhouse are putting on small fruits.
We'd like to hear your garden success stories. Or, tell us how you celebrated the Fourth of July. Post your stories and photos on YourHub. Find it at ColoradoSprings.com, or e-mail tim.bergsten@coloradosprings.com.
