So we finished session and have made it most of the way through a very hot, very dry summer. I also am now a year older meaning that I'm getting further from quarter aged and closer to middle aged. However, if 30 is the new 20, I'm 17 again and that is awesome!




Due to an extended vacation I took (Germany, Italy and Greece= INCREDIBLE!), I had to pull up everything in the garden, this was very sad but I am also excited that I get to start with some new plants and try out my hand at fall crops. I am currently seeding and will start preparing the bed when things start to sprout.
So far I am seeding kale, swiss chard, baby leeks, golden beets, spinach and some delicata squash. Here is a photo of my mish-mash seeding technique.
In addition to the garden, I have been exploring my creative side in a variety of ways, including cooking, learning to crochet, and a few household design projects as well.
Lemon Pepper Kale Chips!
Pineapple Almond Macaroons (I'm pretty sure I ate all of these by myself... they were so good)
My first crochet success, a baby hat! I am so excited for my soon-to-be-nephew to arrive and can't wait to be an Auntie.
I got these awesome bookshelves with a Groupon. My mom and aunt painted the little computer desk and I covered some cardboard with a great fabric and stuck it in an old frame, taaaadaaaa, new craft/computer nook.
Also, I finally got internet at home, so hopefully I will be better about this blogging business.
