I really can't think of a better way to spend Spring Break, Tuffgirl. I went to a couple stores and got seeds for purple carrots, white carrots and orange carrots, beans, lavender, a Sarah Bernhardt peony, sprouts. My dad's are already sprouting: tomatoes, chives, squash, cabbage, I forget what else.... Hopefully, I don't kill the little things while Dad and his wife are traveling, and hopefully, I'll be able to grow more than just weeds for me and DS. I'm trying to think of other plants that I may be able to do alright with: more flowers in pinks, lavenders and white, for a planter XAH cannot give away, rosemary, more peonies...
I've also found one of the first projects for whatever little home I eventually find: a living fence of orange osage, or maybe willow. Dreaming of my own little home is so nice.
