It's hot, hot, HOT outside (for Maine) Oh Joy
and I have a bunch of plants to pot up, and a bunch of others to put in the garden. I'm in heaven. This may be the happiest day I've had since March 1996, no exaggeration. Therefore I wish you all the best of Fridays because my joy is diminished when my dear friends are having a tough time. HUGE HUGS to all of you. (No, I'm not drinking or smoking anything :P). :grouphug: :loveya:

2. Thanks!
I don't begin to warm up until it's at least seventy degrees. I guess we're only getting one day of this and tomorrow it's sunny but cooler. You can go outside then! :bounce:

4. My garden is full of perennials but I'm putting a bunch of lavender in
(like you!), twelve plants. Then I have herb plants and seed: coriander, parsley, tarragon, mint etc. Then in pots I'll put a few pepper plants both hot and bell, and three large tomato plants and some geraniums & petunias. Because my house is for sale I'm not doing as much as usual but just weeding the garden will keep me busy.

5. sounds yummy
I've had such awful luck with herbs and vegetables that I dont even try any more. At least the lavender can survive my gardening.
