Window thyme

Thyme growing on my window in a jar! Hoping to make a whole window box of herbs soon.

I'm feeling spring fever! The Red Sox have gone to spring training. The crocus are in bloom and tulips and daffodils are popping up all over the place!

 I'm itching to buy some tickets for fenway this season but I just lost my second job and I'm tightening the belt along with the rest of the world. So tickets can wait. I always end up with a few. 

I started my winter-sowing a few weeks ago. Don't know what that is? Read all about it at www.wintersown.org. It's a way for spatially challenged people such as myself in my tiny one bedroom apartment and no room for a light set up. You take seeds and let nature do the work with a little help from mini greenhouses made from jugs, bottles and flats.  See easy as pie the seeds sit all snug until spring and bloom when ready. Some cole crops have started already and I know they can survive through a bit of snow.
