basil and Joshua Bell
ever since one of my students gave me a little packet of zinnia seeds to plant and grow, i've fallen in love with gardening, if you can call planting seeds and watching them grow true gardening. once they reached about 3 inches, i bought a bigger pot and replanted it and it's still alive and healthy!
the other day i was buying some seeds for our teachers at church for Teacher's Sunday, when i saw the packets of basil seeds. i grabbed two varieties of basil seeds and determined to sow them this week. and so, as a new gardener, i'll try to plant them today, if i can manage to find the right pot with good drainage. gardening is no joke.. even the directions on the back of the packets require some knowledge on part of the handler to be able to understand what they're telling you to do.. so i'm looking for some help.
in other news, i went to see Joshua Bell last night with a good friend from church. first time seeing him live. she invited me to go and see him play Mendelssohn with the Oregon Symphony, so we had dinner at Dragon Fish and then walked to Schnizter. the orchestra finished with an hour long piece by Anton Bruckner. someone from church had wanted an autographed CD, so after it was all over, we stood in line to get an autograph and then took a picture with him. and then he thanked us for coming out to see him. by the time i got home, i was exhausted. but the weather was beautiful all day, so it was a day to be thankful for.
a lot to be thankful for.
peace.
