We've finally gotten 'round to working on our garden; getting the earth tilled, and so on (yes, there were whole hours without rain!).
We bought plants (I have a three-year old son, three dogs, and a house to take care of; I don't have time to start from seed), and hopefully? Will have the first batch of herbs and vegetables in the ground tomorrow night (if I've recovered from the Alias finale, that is).
But one thing we don't have to worry about: sage.
We planted this last year. It went from being a sage plant to a sage city.
It's enormous.
Too bad neither of actually cares for sage, huh? I think this year, we'll only plant things we like.

Back in June, shortly after I started this blog, I made a soup from leftover beans that I really enjoyed. However, because of the time involved in making the beans, I had not gotten around to making the soup again. For IMBB 11, I decided that I would...
- "you Can't Call It Cheating, She Reminds Me Of You"...a Breakfast Pizza
(Bonus points if you can name that song!) Monday's dinner was a 'cheat' meal. I so rarely prepare meals using store-bought goods, but (believe it or no) this recipe came from Vegetarian Times! Refrigerated crescent rolls for the crust, topped...
