A bright morning.

Cascadia snap peas!  -- not exactly a cash crop, but enough to feed us and our guests next weekend.

I like the slightly cloudy look of this photo.  I'd just finished a morning walk through the neighborhood and around the ravine. Coming through the back gate, this lavendar seemed to be waving at me.  Of the herbs I grow, rosemary (for remembrance) and lavendar (for sleep and for sweet dreams) are my favorites.  I never remember exactly the right time to chop the lavendar back, so it has been more time than usual for it to get this size this year.  Probably had something to do with all the snow as well.

Having finished both newspapers, I'm jumping in the shower before breakfast with Lauren -- a perfect way to start the day.
