I’m pretty sure this is illegal to the KFC conduct codebook but my mom would sometimes sneak me a extra biscuit. That’s when I knew I was a good girl that day.

Freezing and drying herbs in multiple ways makes your garden season last even when there is a foot of snow out on the ground. Need some basil? No problem. Just dry it and crush it up – then you will have basil to last you forever. Same goes for so many other herbs. Also if you don’t have a garden, no worries.

This weekend was very exciting because we planted our very first plants up on the land! If you want to follow along with when we plant, you can find it on the seed calendar. We’re slowly adjusting to the new seed schedule for Zone 5A. It feels like we’re planting late since we’re so used to NYC Zone 6B. This is all going to be a learning experience to figure out when we should plant, probably with some heart break thrown in....

For anyone who’s ever had to pill a cat, this is probably a situation you can relate to....

It has taken forever, but we officially closed and sold our Upstate property. It’s no longer ours. I feel lots of emotions. I’m sad because Matthew and I had so much fun tearing that place up to make a garden and building a little shipping container home. I’m mostly sad because we planted our Christmas trees there and I won’t get to see them grow. Heartbreak. But I’m also relieved and excited for the future in NYC....

I start everyday with a cup of tea. Do you? It can be warm or cold, it doesn’t really matter. Most green and black teas have enough caffeine for that morning boost. My morning always starts with a yawn. Then I waddle out of the bedroom with my comfiest bed shirt on and make myself a cup of tea. I then continue to have a few cups of tea throughout the day....

When the garden gives you 7 pounds of cauliflower and 8 pounds of sugar snap peas in one week, you make Sugar Snap Pea and Cauliflower Casserole! And you add shredded cheddar cheese, because you should always add cheese on top! This is usually how it goes during garden season.
