Oh! Happy Day!
I had my first cup of coffee on the terrace today without being so bundled up that I can hardly find my mouth with the mug. The chile and the tarragon I thought I'd murdered have lifted their winter-worn heads and are actually ALIVE, I tell you, ALIVE!!!
(Actually, it's incredible what effect the sun has on ME, let alone the plants)
Had great, surreal moment this morning as I was planting a new herb (to my kitchen, anyway): Mexican Marigold: there, peering beakily down at me from the willow tree, was a huge green parrot! As if it was saying: "?Hola!??Estan para mi?" Cheeky. I better watch out for him. I'll name him Cesar, I think.
The planting diary has been written, the manure spread and the pesky rosemary beetles crushed under foot, and I shall keep you all informed, once again, of my triumphs and my tears as I go forward on another journey, with seeds and dirt and lots of love.
