Today was all about plants. I finished my research paper for the current horticulture course and, for a very limited time, I am willing to hold a conversation about the tamarack, also known as the Eastern larch. Moving on to indoor specimens, I overhauled everything growing in the sunroom, then set up containers for seeds that I will sow this week. That’s right, today’s Arctic temperatures notwithstanding, there will be homegrown lettuce within weeks.

mmmm… homegrown….
