Yearning for Summer

April 3, 2008
By Barbara Elliott Martin, Executive Editor

The news is reporting another snowstorm, making it the fourth for the season (or fifth, if you count an ice storm we had at the end of January).

On a snowbound day, the best activity is to make a list from the latest seed catalogs delivered by heroic mailwomen such as our carrier, Kim. For you techies, www.seedsavers.org will inspire you with their heartfelt mission.

 

                 

For heirloom tomatoes, search www.heirloomtomatoes.bizland.com,  which has an extensive selection. Who could resist Yellow Stuffer? The color alone will make you want to play in the dirt.

Get your cup of coffee, or tea if you prefer, find a sunny spot with a view of powder-laden trees, and spend some time dreaming of summer.

What wonderful happy thoughts!! If we ever get the rain to stop long enough in KY, maybe I can get some of my seeds in the ground! I can't wait to smell all the wonderful aroma's of Spring & Summer!

Good idea! I've started my tomato seeds and sugar snap peas under a fluorescent light in my basement. And, the peas are already peeking out of the dirt.

If only I had a green thumb. I'm still holding out hope that one day I'll have a luscious garden in my backyard. Hope the sun peaks out and warms your skin soon:) I have long been a fan of your magazine! So glad I have discovered the ME Blog!!!

Sweet dreams. It's April 6, 2008 in St. Louis. I have blue primroses blooming by my front door, yellow daffodils everywhere, and enough sunshine to make me believe that sweet corn will be available one of these days.
