Well......It's been a while, yes I know. But I've been very preoccupied with the outdoors! I've been having so much fun planting my herb garden that I've lost track of everything else. The weather has warmed up so nice and its been perfect for planting. So far I have planted a large variety of flowers including poppies, daisies and sunflowers. I've also been transplanting trees and then just the general care of the lawn has been a huge job in itself. But my newest project has been my herb garden. We wanted all fresh herbs so we have basil, mint, garlic chives, cilantro, dill and then we have fresh veggies to, cherry tomatoes and 5 different types of chilies! Can't have enough of those right!!! Well I've been able to use the fresh ingredients in salads and in dinner preparation and let me tell you! It makes all the difference! I love going out with my scissors and deciding what I want to clip that will make my food even better!! I encourage everyone to do it because not only for the culinary value of it but it really is an awesome stress reliever and you get a nice tan too!

Ooo Fun! My folks just planted a vegetable garden this year. Various tomatoes and squashes, cilantro, parsley, and then some watermelon and honeydew. The turkeys ate a few things already however. We're all anxious to see how the rest grow this year and how good they taste. Our grapes this year are amazing, so sweet, and each year they get bigger and bigger.
Ditto on that! The favorite part of my day is checking up on my garden. It is amazing how fast things grow, and sad when my squash goes rotten!!! But it is so relaxing, and just very fun.
