Spring!!!

Pretty sure it's no secret.. I ADORE spring!  And this spring has been extra amazing.. I'm not exactly sure what happened to winter this year.. but it's all good!!  Flowers are blooming.. the spinach and peas are already coming up in the garden.. which brings me to my problem. 
We have had two rabbits.. it would appear that they were formerly someone's pets.. and they have taken up residence in my yard.  They have not so affectionately been named Flopsy and Mopsy.  I don't mind sharing the space, however.. I'd like to think that the garden will have a fighting chance to produce veggies!!  Fences were discussed.. and then Marla reminded me of my garden loving Grandpa Wiegand's trick.  Hang icky smelling soap from the trees around the garden.  Well, since most soap is engineered to smell good.. I ended up deciding on Ivory.  :  )  :  )  Hehe.  Should be interesting.  Grandpa claimed it worked like a charm at his beloved garden down at the cabin.  We shall see.
