How does my garden grow..

I finally have a minute for a post.. or at least a hastily constructed photo post. Presenting the fruits of my labor- literally.




Peas! These grew incredibly fast. Definitely a keeper.

This cute little guy is currently about an inch long. Probably headed for a pickle jar. Yum.


Cilantro flowers- you're supposed to trim back the flowers to encourage leaf growth, but they're so pretty!

So.. I decided to let them grow and harvest the seeds for coriander.

Through bursts of craftiness..


I've finished knitting a scarf! Very simple pattern that grew out of my practice swatch. I've started another one.. just in time for spring. Great.

Next project: gardening. Just waiting for some money to buy a few supplies. I've already experimented with growing a small amount of lentil sprouts in a jar- super simple!

Little exciting culinary news recently. Tonight was a tasty terrific Trader Joe's dinner-- roasted red pepper and tomato soup, oyster crackers, and cheese/garlic/mushroom souffle. And Two Buck Chuck. Little to no effort on our part.
