Today I let an obvious notion give me a starting point. I looked in our kitchen to see what we’re really using before making up a possible herb/spice seed list.

Looked back at a year ago this time-ish
I tried to recall if we still had snow and such this far into April last year, and I found this in my run-on writing (elsewhere) on April 19th about snow still on the ground: Continue reading “Looked back at a year ago this time-ish”

Time will tell.
