Spring gardening


Finally, two days of sunshine in a row! I planted part of my herb garden yesterday . . . sage and thyme and oregano and cilantro. Mmmm, it makes my mouth water :=) In fact, I nipped a few leaves off my baby sage plants to make Chicken Breast with Sage, one of my faves, for dinner.

Today I planted climbing peas and green beans, mixing them all up near a fence so they'll climb together. Always Ms. Grace, I dropped a clipper on my ankle and gouged a hole, which of course bled. I was cutting back those vines that are trying to take over the left side of the yard. They're so pretty with their pink flowers and then later the wisteria with their long purple blooms, but they're deadly. If you let them go they'll smother everything, so I attacked. Then I was attacked, but only by a clipper.
