Other Boo-Boo’s

 I was supposed to go to the room mates dance competition tonight. She did this AWESOME piece, she calls it the “Box Piece” that I saw once already. I loved it, and was looking forward to seeing again. In fact, it about moved me to tears when I saw it. I had to wait a couple of days before I could even talk to her about it without crying. Truly amazing.

 Unfortunatly, she sent me a text saying her dancers ankle was “trash” and she was pulling the piece. I was bummed.

 I had some free time so I thought I would find you Mike fans a picture. He strained a ligament in the game the other night so he is on the 15 day disabled list. So sad! Below is a picture of Mike and his bad thumb. He is still smiling though so that’s cool. Feel better pal! And you too young dancer lady!!

Sowing the Seeds With Love

  I love caprece. It’s best with cherry tomatoes which are my favorite. Over the winter I told the room mate I was going too grow tomatoes and basil. I asked her if we could get a cow so all of my caprece would be super fresh and raised by me. She said we could. I think she was joking though.

I planted some cherry tomatoes and basil yesterday. I put them in the mini greenhouse thing you can buy. They are in the window above the sink. They get a lot of sun there. I got the package of seeds for both so I can do the whole thing myself.

 I want to know a couple of things. First, why are there so many seeds in a package? If I planted that many seeds I would have enough basil and tomatoes for the whole town! Second, how many should you plant? I know from experience that one cherry tomato plant will yield about 50 million tomatoes. A few summers back I planted two. I was so sick of cherry tomatoes by the end of the season. Anyway, I planted four of each. I figured at least one would make it. If they all make it, does anyone want a cherry tomato and or a basil plant?

 Like a dork, I checked in on them today to see if anybody popped up yet. I know this is not possible. It’s really got me itching to garden though. I want to start flowers. Auntie Teacher tells me every year I should wait until mothers day. She’s right. The chance of frost is still very likely around here.
