Oh, thank the Good Lord, it's March! And even though it snowed a little yesterday, I don't mind - 'cause I know the end is in sight! My hubby and I have spent the week browsing seed and plant catalogs and making plans for our yard. I can't wait until we can actually plant. Of course, I am sure I will be less enthused when my back is aching and the weeds are popping up all over, but for now I am thrilled at the prospect.We are going to plant a good-sized vegetable garden with all kinds of tasty stuff - I am even going to try growing corn! I am going to have an herb garden with rosemary, thyme, cilantro, mint, parsley and anything else I can think of. There will be lots of hardy and drought-tolerant plants put in the front yard and tall pampas grass in the back for the boys to hide behind and run between. Oh, and I can't forget the lavender! I am going to plant lots and lots of lavender. I can already smell it!

oh! i totally want to hang out in your yard!
lavender = awesome.
corn = i remember my grandfather growing tons of corn in his big back yard and i would run through it and it would make me all nervous and scared and excited because that was around the time that the children of the corn movie was out. spooky.
I love lavender too. Does that make us all old ladies?
And fresh corn and tomatoes are my garden favorites.
Lavendar was the FIRST thing I planted at my house. I *love* it.
You're going to have so much fun in your garden this spring! Yay! I can't to see what the harvest brings!
I've had bumblebees checking out my blooming heather these past few weeks. It's definitely spring here already! Poo-poo the snow!
