Spring Has Sprung

Oh it's been forever since I last wrote.     Spring has finally arrived.   There is still a little snow on the north side of our house, so that means the front yard.   I did a little spring clean up in the back yard and that involved pooper scooping after Stuart and picking up some fallen twigs from the lawn and flowerbeds.   I can hardly wait until it is a little warmer to really get out there to rake and dig up the garden.     I'm so excited.

But to get more in the spring mood I started planting some herb seeds in a seeding tray.    But I got carried away and planted some other things too.

Cilantro
Sweet Basil
Oregano
Lime Basil
Zucchini
Cucumber
Bacheolor's Buttons
Lavatera
Nasturtium
Little Blue Peppers

I don't know if I have my timing right for some of these plants but that's part of the reason I'm writing.   It will become a record and I can keep track of how they grow and my planting timing, etc.

Anyway, I'm happy to just get the show on the road.   I know I'll still buy a load of stuff and there are still seeds I have to plant straight into the garden on the May long weekend, but I'm happy to start.
