Dirt

Once the weather hits 60 degrees, I have some sort of primal urge to plant things. I used to not have it, but now that I'm older I do. Maybe somehow I have learned to enjoy the simpler yet magnificent things like watching a plant grow, or eating a tomato sandwich made from a tomato you and the creator grew yourselves.

{Curry Plant}

This years selection of herbs will be: Sage, Thyme, Parsley, Rosemary, Oregano, Basil, and Marjoram.

Vegetables: Tomatoes {mainly heirloom Cherokee Purple, aka the best tomato ever}, Cucumber, Red Bell Pepper.

In the raised Butterfly Garden, only Purple Coneflower, and Lantana.

There's something sacred and ethereal about the whole process.
