Today Larry and I enjoyed a rather quiet Saturday. That is a good thing after the flurry of activity we had over Thanksgiving. We were both relieved not to be too sore after our long walk yesterday. I went to a fabulous nursery here, Mesquite Valley Growers, to buy some herbs for our planter boxes. That nursery reminds me of Molbak's in Woodinville. They have acres of high quality plants and trees. I enjoyed looking around. I ended up buying more mint for mohitos, oregano, parsely, and margoram. Herbs are supposed to thrive on neglect, so I hope our new ones do OK while we are gone. If they don't, at least we won't lose a big financial investment in them. Eventually I want to plant one or two lime trees in big pots to make a mohito garden. I found out that March is a much better time for that. We get some freezing temperatures at night starting about now, so we need to wait until the danger of freeze has past. The other highlights of the day were housecleaning, car washing, and going out to Chopped for dinner.
Rain was forecaste for this afternoon. We haven't gotten any yet. Although I love the blue skies, I know that this area needs rain and was looking forward to it. Maybe tomorrow!
