Shane and I have enjoyed spending the last couple of evenings working out in the yard, doing some weeding, planting, watering, and general clean-up. We are completely new to the yard maintenance game, so we’re asking our neighbors for advice and making the rest up as we go. My little back porch herb garden isn’t quite thriving, but it is at least surviving, which is enough to keep me happy. I did break down and buy a full-grown basil plant from Trader Joe’s, since the basil I grew from seed still hasn’t really taken off. But my dill, on the other hand, is going crazy and has produced these beautiful firework-like flowers. The trick now is to figure out what to do with all these herbs, since my cooking skills are as rough as my gardening skills…

Now you can make some pickles!! That is unless Shane still thinks he’s going to find them growing on a tree:)
