Wondering where I've been? Heres where! (partly anyways) Gardening is work! Ah but I love the results, I love just being in a garden, ANY garden, zen for the soul.

It has been a busy past month or two though, travels to Mexico, Washington State, visits here from friends (aloha Elsie!), so don't ever feel bad for me with this self-imposed exile, all is well and life is kickin in southern California!

Check out my mixed lettuces and herb bed. Forget those expensive gourmet bags of mixed baby greens, with regular seedings we'll be munching our own for some time to come. I see apricot pies in the near future and am already harvesting buckets of zuccini. Hey CB, how does YOUR garden grow???
