As classes of all sorts get scheduled, rescheduled and postponed due to weather, and with the short days with less light, I often find January and February to be a forced pause. Years like this convince me that I should get good at reading rain gauges and keeping track of the temperature. It seems like we've had an usual amount of snow. That should be good for our snow pack and seasonal runoff to fill creeks, lakes, basins, but we'll see what the spring brings. In the meantime, I have been trying to tick off indoor chores and projects, and working on garden things. We have started a handful of seedlings: basil, foxgloves, verbascum, lavender, rosemary, onions and something new to us, naranjilla . We have varying levels of success. The naranjilla did take a long time to germinate; I think we used 11 seeds, and we currently have five seedlings, some a couple weeks older than others! We're still 12-14 weeks out from planting and I really had my hands full last year -
C*U*T*E!!! I was just starting to get used to you with super long hair -- but the new cut and color are very nice -- and just in time for hopefully warmer weather!
