While the rest of the country is hunkering down for the Storm of the Century, I've been dreaming about asparagus. While I'm not quite ready to say that our snows are over here in TN, I'm getting ready just in case Spring is around the corner.
Yesterday, I seeded artichokes, asparagus, tomatoes, peppers, and broccoli in the AeroGrow. Starting seeds is my annual personal act of faith -- the cold will end, the darkness will abate, spring will come, and life will go on. Some years, the garden is abundant; in others, the sun doesn't shine and the tomatoes rot on the vine.
But the surety that water, soil, light and seed will result in a green sprout reaching for the sky is my idea of a miracle.
