Last week I showed you my tray of new vegetable seedlings. I have been moving the tray out into the sun in the mornings and back under the terraza roof in the afternoons before it starts raining.

I am so discouraged. It is September -- I think I may just pretend that winter is coming to the tropics and forget about vegetables for awhile.
