We spent this weekend doing some of our favorite things. On Saturday we went to the Greenhouse, and bought some flowers and herbs for me, and a few more tomato plants for Herm. I potted my flowers on Saturday and placed them around the deck. They will be much prettier in a few weeks when the fertilizer kicks in and they fill out.
On Sunday Herm planted his tomato plants and some herbs for me; I chose rosemary, thyme, chives and a lot of basil for pesto. I didn't have to get oregano because my oregano from last year is thriving as if it never experienced a winter this year. Last summer the herbs did better than anything else we planted. I love them so much. They smell incredible. You only have to lightly brush your hand over them, and your hand radiates the aroma. Wonderful!
Today is rainy and overcast, but the woods behind our house are beautiful. Everything is lush and green, and the rain has given it a depth of character that it doesn't always have. It has a primitive feeling about it, and even though there is another house just beyond, it feels as if we're nestled deep in the center of an ancient stand of woods, kind of eerie but comforting all at the same time. I so love a rainy day.
