First of all, my apologies for such a long pause in writing. I know some of you check my blog regularly and I didn't mean to let you down. My silence has not been indicative of nothing happening! Indeed, I have a lot to write about! The Wood Artist and I decided yesterday that we are going to start penciling into our daily schedule "dull moments"! What a hoot! Can you imagine coming to, say, 2:45 p.m., and saying, "O.k. everyone, its time for a dull moment!" I really wish we could!
I've been planting my garden starts like a mad woman. I have around 100 pots of lavender, about 1000 basil plants, 36 cabbage pots, six trays of hot and sweet peppers, and 30 beefstake tomatoes. I have 4 more varieties of tomatoes to plant, 3 more varieties of peppers, and quite a few flowers! Will I have extras? Probably. I might try my hand at selling some of the plants.
Another "dull moment" in our house was the kids getting sick. Laughing Water had a fever of 103 degrees for 3 days. Mr. Blueberry Eyes didn't get so sick and even felt like playing his violin a little (see photo).
Our gardening meeting at the library went very well. I heard that there were over 50 people there! I had a wonderful time meeting great new gardening friends! Can't wait to chat with them more.
Some of you have requested recipes for my Pesto and also my Kale Sausage Soup, so I am going to post them here. I hope you enjoy!
In closing, I just want to say that my heart is with the families of the victims of the plane crash in Butte, Montana. One of the mothers was a piano student of mine a long time ago and her father was my Anatomy and Physiology teacher in college. My prayers and thoughts are with all of the grieving families!

Enjoyed the blogs. Yes, had already checked twice before today. Guess I am obsessive but it doesn't take long to check so is something I do when online. Cut and pasted the recipes. Would love to buy some plants if can be there at the right timewhich may not work! Thank you with love, Nani
