Blossoms Around Town
I could not choose between pure simplicity and sparkling complexity–both beautiful.


Today I harvested herbs to dry (lemon balm, mint, rosemary, thyme, sage). I froze a pint of garlic chive blossoms, made a green jerk sauce, a basil-garlic chive pesto–most went into the freezer, the rest I will eat in the next week or so. I started a mint liqueur and today’s bean harvest, yielded a pint of fresh beans that I put into the freezer. And I started stringing chili peppers to dry. I found it soothing and meditative.

While what was going on down on the surface of the earth was going on, the sky was a play of light and shadow.
