Planting

cilantro

Hope everyone had a fun and happy 4th of July weekend!

Mine was dampened by the fact that I had to work every day (the news doesn’t stop, unfortunately). But the nice thing was working the night shift all weekend and having a bit of time to enjoy the sun and beautiful weather during the day! I got to go on some walks around the neighborhood, hang out with friends and re-pot some herbs for our windowsills! Yummy cilantro, rosemary, basil, thyme and oregano!

One of D.’s friends even gave us a large tomato plant, which we decided to try to grow on the front step. I attached the pot to the railing in the hopes that it doesn’t “walk away” one of these nights – we’ll just have to see if it lasts! Either way, it was fun making a mess on the street and getting a little dirty. And I love all the extra green in the windows and the way the cats curl around the flowerpots!

  2. Lovely! Getting your hands dirty is very satisfying and can also be cathartic. I love digging around in my gardens….planting, moving plants, etc. The only problem comes in with my four little Poms try and help me. LOL!!

    Sounds like you and D are “settling” in nicely.

  3. Ah, I wish I could have some plants. Unfortunately, between my black thumb and the Texas heat, everything dies outside. Inside, my cats eat them. =(
