I got the winter garden in last weekend and I am waiting for my seeds to sprout.  I had some of the grass come back already.  I may need to go to Joshua's and get some vegetables to transplant.

The one eggplant bush that made it is turning into a tree again.  There are three or four eggplant that are growing and just need to get bigger.  The tomatoes and watermelon have blooms so I am hoping that we will get some fruit and vegetables.  By the way, did you know that tomatoes are fruit and watermelon are vegetables?

The peppers are a profuse as ever and I need to fill the freezer with chili and chilaquila.  

Russell finished this knife while I was at work.  It is a seven inch Santoku style blade.  It is absolutely beautiful and well balanced.  He took it to our naturopath's office and one of the ladies there bought it!  He sold a knife within a hour of finishing it.  Just amazing! Before I even had a chance to hold it!  And it was the blade of the two he cut out that I liked best.  Just an absolutely fabulous knife.

I have a feeling it is going to be an interesting weekend and potentially an interesting spiral path we are to walk.  Is that not a Chinese cures?  May you live in interesting times.  It does make me smile.
