springtime delights

Fresh asparagus. Strawberries. Thunderstorms with lots of dramatic lightning. Flipflops. Cooking over the grill. The smell of the earth, warm from the sun. Cutting grass. Seeing tiny little seedlings push through the earth. The call of the mourning dove. Barefoot. Opening the windows to let in fresh air after a long winter. Days longer, more sun. Spring.

First day of Spring!!

Ahh, the first day of Spring! Today holds so much promise, of snow melting, seeing the first robin, feeling that warmth of the sun on your face....Happy first day of Spring! The seedlings are doing well, its time for some of the tomatoes to be moved into 6 inch pots. They will love their new homes I'm sure! Some of the herb seedlings did not transplant too well, I have learned that my lavender really got ticked off going into larger pots and is still sulking, a few days after. I hope that they will respond to my loving care. Thankfully the parsley, bells of Ireland and spinach seedlings were far less grumpy.
Tomorrows forecast says 8 inches of snow very possible. I'm keeping my fingers crossed....
