The Pollen-Hued Corridor :)

I thought it was high time we gave you an official catching-up of what is going on around our home. :) After all, we seem to talk about everything on this blog but What We Do and that is ridiculous.

As of a few weeks ago the heads of Taste & See Family Farm prayerfully decided that we are not growing produce for markets this year. We will still have a large garden and keep up the baking side of things, but for this year we won't be selling veggies. Truth be told we are a little relieved--last summer was worthwhile was *so* exhausting! We will enjoy actually having time to do things as a family that don't involve weeding, weeding, weeding and...Oh! More weeding. :)

Sarah and I have been spending every Wednesday filling orders for the online farmer's market we are a part of--we love it. Especially when there are extra Chocolate Chunk Cookies. :)

As a graduated girl I've had the chance to devote more time to my writing--I just finished my second "official" novel: The Scarlet-Gypsy Song. I wrote in in 4 months from conception of the idea to the finish line. I am rather proud of it.

Sarah's hammering away at the Latin and Algebra 2 and all that jazz. I think she likes it, however much she bemoans her lot. ;)

We are both standing on the pollen-hued edge of spring, looking down the corridor, and wriggling with happy anticipation. A friend is getting married on May 12 and we are to be helping with several things--all that means we will get to see several friends who live 2 hours away a heap more than usual. (!)

Down the corridor I see happy weddings, some dances, some graduations, some gardening, some writing, some time with friends, and altogether every sign of a happy and busy Spring! :)

What about you all? Having a good spring? What are your plans? I'll leave you hear with a Charlie Chaplin video to make you laugh. (and get a teensy bit creeped out.)

(Oh, and don't forget to vote on the Poll ^)
