Home and Garden; Oakland Edition

We found a great place right in north Oakland, in easy biking distance to all the places we need to go (including the famed Berkeley Bowl!). Allison got a job working at a cute boutique in Berkeley. Jon's still searching for that perfect job (i.e. anything). So here's some photos of our stuff!

When we moved in the backyard was a huge cat toilet. It was literally covered in cat shit. After an extensive cleanup effort, we managed to plant a decent sized garden and the plants are doing well.



The house came with a monster rosemary plant.




We weren't sure if these poppies were going to make it, but the first one bloomed this morning.



Red Burger Onions.



Dutch Cabbage.



Cabbage and Brussel Sprouts



Lettuce!



Dexter found a new friend. Its Sally the Salamander! She's shy but we're hoping she eats some bugs.



Snap Peas.



Our extensive tracks of land.
