Digging or building

I really need to get my act together as the growing season is growing! (sorry) ever nearer. I know it never really ends and never really starts but I want a full kitchen garden blooming this summer and thats what I've got in mind. The question is do i dig the plots or have raised beds. I cant help but think that raised beds would be easier to manage but digging just sounds like fun, well it does to me anyway because i like that sort of thing.

 Raised beds would be easier because weeds and grass could be managed better and the structure of the bed makes for an easier series of boundaries.

 Digging would be cheaper and more fun but the the constant weeding might get a bit annoying and time consuming.

 I think I've already decided that it will be a mixture of both!
