I feel there is more to this digging in the dirt; more to the careful tending of these little genetic packages. For me, it's a bit of a meditation, a balancing of my karma.

My efforts have been rewarded by corn stalks beginning to leap upwards, racing with the sunflowers who are very imposing along the back fence. The green beans are struggling and the blueberries are slow, but the tomatoes, onions and the herb patch are all brilliant. Perhaps the peppers will come around soon, as well.

I had the first bits of fresh basil sprinkled on pasta at dinner last night and the flavor just exploded in my mouth.
