It's been raining for about 4 hours now.  I'm not complaining! =)  We really need it.  It's a nice steady relaxing rain.... the weatherman says it's not going to stop until sometime tomm. afternoon. 

I picked up some Thyme, and Flat Leaf Parsley today and got them planted in pots around the grill before the rain started. For herbs I now have mint, basil, rosemary, cilantro, thyme, and parsley.  Those seem to be the ones I use the most.  Espically basil and thyme!!!  

 When I showed hubby all the seed packets I'd been collecting he decided he would dig me up an area next to the screen porch so I could sit out there and watch the butterflies.   As usual he requested a diagram. =)  I went looking for some flats to start seeds in. I'd forgotten I had all those pots back behind the shed, nothing small to start seeds in though. I have a couple diff varieties of zinneas, red hot pokers, and butterfly weed seeds.  There is a mexican flame vine growing next to the shed I'd like to move to the butterfly patch and there is already a fire bush next to the area.  Maybe one or two more additions and I should draw alot of butterflies!  I'd like to build some kind of cool trellis for the vine and put in a puddling spot for the butterflies.  My neighbor use to have a vine growing on an old chair frame.  It looked cool.

When I started organizing my recipies yesterday I unleashed a monster. (wow) Mission organization is finally over and I can't believe thats my kitchen! (seriously)  I think I've cleaned out every cabinet and drawer in a single day. I even took a picture....for proof!  It may never be that organized again (grin)
