A $26.11 timing error

I started seedlings indoors, like I do every year. It got warm outside, but I knew we'd have another cold front because we always do. It warmed up again, I planted them, left town and we had a frost.

Not sure if the seedlings that survived will recover, but a bunch died. All my cool weather stuff was okay, but I lost tomatoes and peppers. I went to a nursery to buy replacements, and of course, saw all these other herbs and heirloom tomatoes that I had to have.

Twenty six dollars later, I have more plants than I lost. At least I was alone. If anyone had come with me, we'd have bought whatever they thought we absolutely had to have too.
