Crazy spring weather………

Here it is the 5th of May, yes it is Cinco de Mayo but we are not actually celebrating that, and the weather can’t seem to decide whether to be nice or not, warm or cold, calm or windy. Ok well this IS Mountain Home, Idaho and wind DOES really like to blow here.

Was so glad we did not have to get up at the crack of dawn for work today. I slept in until almost 7am! That’s late for me – – LOL.

After a couple cups of tea and a little breakfast and an awesome phone call with my sis I thought I ought to get busy and do something. So shower, clothes and hubby and I were off to Walmart to get some big pots (for planting herbs and lettuce) along with a few other things we needed.  Got the pots and some potting soil and home we came. I have now planted the starts of lettuce and herbs in said pots and they are sitting just inside our sliding glass door which leads to the back deck. It is just a little cool and windy to put them outside so far.

The apricot tree is absolutely loaded with fruit as is at least one of our two peach trees, the strawberry plants are blooming and I need to cut the rhubarb again!  Had a wonderful rhubarb crisp a week or so ago. That stuff has been enjoying the cooler wetter weather.

Should get in my “sweat shop” and work on something, just waiting for inspiration to hit, have some ideas for a show one sister and I will be attending in November! Oh yeah trying to be ahead of the game for a change. Amazing I know. Come see us at the Bruneau Cowboy Christmas event in Bruneau, Idaho on the 17th and 18th of November, 2012 from 10am to 4pm each day.

Ok back to work on something, have a great day all!
