January 9, 2022.

 We had an icy rainy day today but in spite of that, I am so excited!

There are 70 days more until spring. The new season comes on March 20th.

I can not wait to garden again. I am already taking notes on what seeds to plant where. 


I am also planning on adding more sunflowers, corns, marigolds, milkweeds, and 1 persimmon tree. 

Both photos were taken from my daughter's room window.

Hi

 The mister bought a new patio umbrella for our bistro furniture in our garden. Although that area of the garden is not exposed to the sun in the afternoon, but by that time the mosquitoes are everywhere.

Mosquitoes aren't active in the morning, so it is best to enjoy outdoor dining before noon.


Friday, I had to go out of the house early for an appointment. The boy offered to drive me to my destination. It didn't take long, and we were already home after 30 minutes. 

We had Caffè Latte and Cinnamon Rolls. I baked the rolls the previous night using King Arthur's recipe of the year.  Surprisingly, the recipe has less ingredients than the recipe I usually use. It was indeed pillowy soft, and it didn't disappoint.


For lunch, I fulfilled a promise to my son that we'd buy lunch at the food trucks at the nearby park. This event, Key City Food and Farm Market runs from May 7 to September 3, only on Fridays from 11 am to 3 pm. 


The mister and I had Vegan Falafel sandwich from Three Daughters Food truck. The boy had Pit Beef Sandwich from the Moose Pit Food Truck.

We ate our sandwiches at the park too.

I also bought a dozen pack of  fresh pastured eggs from a local farm, Good Soil Farm. I wished I bought a bulb of their German garlic, to use and to plant some. Well, maybe next time. 

Saturday was nice. It was cooler so we had our coffee outside, and spent most of the day there too. I did some cleaning at our farmacy, transferred some plants that didn't do well at their current location. Some I transplanted into pots that I put in our greenhouse, and some into vacant spaces in one garden bed. 


Tomorrow is another week. I can't wait to list new items in my online shop. 

Full speed ahead!
