obladee, oblada

so a couple of weeks ago i was really wanting to plant some stuff. we went to calloway's, but i just couldn't find anything simple. then i decided i'd get some herbs, because they are fairly easy to care for, and you can eat them. i LOVE getting to go snip off a few stems to put into our food! i don't know that it necessarily tastes a lot better or anything, but it is fun for sure. also, i was watching the today show a few days after i got them, and martha stewart had this cute idea for plant markers. you get a stick (i bet i looked super cool looking for sticks on our walk that day), peel it with a vegetable peeler till it's a little smooth and light enough to write on, and neatly write your herb name!
