I am gardening this year. This isn't something that comes naturally to me, and I've already had a few missteps, but Jeremy confessed that the limited success I've seen so far is well beyond his dismal expectations. True, I waited so long to harvest my heads of lettuce that they sat on the ground and rotted. And my peppers seem to be hiding timidly under the tomatoes. But my broccoli is doing beautifully and my tomato plants are shooting up. And yesterday I planted the herb garden above! It smells just amazing and I'm looking forward to finding all kinds of uses for my herbs. I have a mix of things I use all the time (cilantro), things I usually use dry but will love to use fresh (basil and oregano) and things I don't really use but will expand my herbal horizons. Besides, peppermint smells so yummy, who can resist?
