Sage, Ganapati


a pole bean, and two radiantly golden cherry tomatoes. I have been waiting months for those four exquisite bites.
Turnip greens and amaranth, included in my morning meal. Two baby japanese eggplants, one hot pepper, a handful of scallions will go into something with tempeh.
The last of the radishes and two beets will be delightful with vidalia onions — all lightly pickled.

I had open all day, while I worked from home, the windows that are protected from the rain. Having the scent of Spring rain and the brightness of my indoor garden helped provide balance to a 14-hour day of editing. Meditation and regular stretching help, too.
Tomorrow I plan to go outside for the clean up phase. With vigor and enthusiasm. I expect that though I’m stiff and sore from too much computer time, hard physical labor will feel good. I’ll get to remind myself of my yoga for gardening tips.
