Is it Spring Yet?

In the midst of January it is always a fun time to begin planning what will be in the garden once the temperatures start to climb.  Last week was planning and ordering time.  And with the wonders of modern logistics the new seeds showed up just three days later.  Always exciting to begin thinking of the growing season will bring especially as I add a few new bean varieties to try this year.  Beans have always been very, very good to me, so I'm hopeful for a bumper crop of dried beans in 2018.  But then who knows what the weather gods have in mind.

After the all the excitement of the seed shipment anything else this week was just going to pale by comparison.  So we went low key and ha a wonderful weekend at home just being bums.  We took several walks to enjoy the unseasonable warm temperatures and when we weren't walking we filled the time with catching up on some needed sleep, a backlog of newspapers and books to read, eating too much food, a few cocktails to relax some more, and just enjoying not having to be working.

Nothing too exciting, but a really relaxing weekend for us.
