Yay! I can start gardening!

Wednesday March 7, 2007 - 04:45pm

Yay! I got to play in the dirt today! We planted three lilac bushes, two purple(Syringa Vulgaris) and one yellow(Syringa Vulgaris Primrose), right next to our east facing bedroom windows. I wasn't satisfied with just that much gardening, so I went through and started digging up the chives that are scattered about our yard for transplanting into our garden this year.

I wondered why our lawn always smelled like onions after it was mown, my wife and daughter found out last year by picking some chives out of the lawn for me to use in cooking. They were good... if you ate around the twigs and pieces of crabgrass. My blessed spouse and children, how hard they do try to please. I'd like to try transplanting all of the patches I find this year. I like chives. They taste good and have pretty purple flowers, at least some of them do.

And now, it's time for "Fun With Blog Games"!

What would the album tracks be if your life was a movie?

1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool... and a lot of the songs fit with the setting
