New Year - and can't wait till Spring!

Welcome 2008!
I have been pouring through all the gardening catalogs that I have been receiving and just can't wait till Spring. I laid out my newly enlarged garden and this year I am going for edamame, sugar snap peas, tomatoes, cucumbers, okra, scallions, garlic, romaine and buttercrunch lettuces, yellow and green summer squash (maybe some patty pan too) and thrown throughout the garden some nasturtium and marigolds as critter deterant. Outside of the garden I am going to plant mini pumpkins to see how they do. Last year the watermelons were a bust. 20 feet of vines and I got three extremely watery, low tasting melons. Just not worth the effort for me.
I have earmarked a number of flowers, both annual and perennial, in the Park Seed, Burpee and Gurney catalogs. I am even looking into a seed starting electric greenhouse because I only have one small, 4 tiered outdoor greenhouse and last year it was jam packed with seedlings and with my over reaching vision this year I am going to need much more growing power!
Here in Boston we had a very close to record breaking snowfall (1" short of beating it) and loads more than last year - 24" versus 7" so I am hoping all my newly planted perennials will make it through the season. Just the other day the snow started to melt along the edges of the lawn and much to my dismay I saw weeds!!!! What is that all about?!?! It is much too cold for weeds and I did put down the corn gluten so things should be under control. Wait till I get my hands on those little suckers come Spring.
There are 5 long more months until I can really start to plant and start seeds but as I said earlier I have a list of must haves for the garden so stay tuned for the next installment of what I ordered.
Enjoy your New Year!
