4lbs of Carrots from the Garden...

...harvested 2 days ago. The grow-tunnels kept them warm enough. They hung out and chilled all winter till we could get to them. Today, Hubs' got another 2-3lbs; those await my attention in the kitchen.

A Sweet New Dawn...

...bittersweet, actually. Just a week ago the world was rocked by the 9.0 earthquake and the tsunamai that resulted. All week, as well, I was conscious and disturbed about the Libyan fighters and civilians who were killed while the world stood around. And the Fogel family in Israel--a massacre of a young family! We'd all love to see better times. SkyWatch Friday

Happy St. Pat's Day....

...there's green stuff growing under the grow-tunnel. Spinach, kale and claytonia are alive and kickin' in the garden. The winter was difficult, yet here we are with the beginnings of some greens in March.  Also, he dug 4lbs of carrots out the garden last night. We ate some for dinner.

Please Note:...

....today, March 16, is the first time I'm able to go outside without a coat or jacket and still be comfortable.
It's about 65F out there now. It's 70F under Hubsy's grow-tunnel.

Hey, Thanks for Stopping by...

Aunt Bloggsy just loves her daily visitors! I check the Maploco gadget regularly; the other day I was happy to notice that "B3"'s had views from every continent except Antarctica (with the view that came from Algeria !). Besides friends and family, it's fun to give friends and family of our neighbors' an extra look around our world! Best of all I enjoy it when I see that "1" visit from a random location turns to "2" and more! Thank you, again!

That Fun-Food---Asparagus...

Young Alice and her Grandpa remind me of Lady and the Tramp here. She's having fun and eating something nourishing at the same time.          In other "Alice" news, her Daddy has big new responsibilities at his job! The family is moving to a city about 3 hours away, so he can do his new assignment. Grandpa and Grandma will be able to see the girls pretty easily, but will miss the quick, casual visits. Fortunately, they have the the twins nearby.  

July in March...

Yesterday, I had a chance for a short visit with little Alice and her baby sister July, now about 8 months old.
From her photos, she appears to be a "serious" baby, but not so! She smiles and points and waves and makes cute little noises. Her eyes are an amazing color, dark but not quite brown...violet?
