Until recently, I had always heard: cold for immediate injury, hot to soothe the aches afterward.
BUT THIS IS A SPRING VEGETABLE GARDENS THREAD!
I have a tendency to ramble. Never to *intentionally* hijack though.
My gardening is rained out today and tomorrow.
GOOD NEWS: I now have a way now to use a rented pickup truck occasionally (Zipcar) so I can go get my bales to finish my veg garden! Might be May before I can $$ but now at least I know I will!
Meanwhile, there's plenty to do!
