sunny days

you know the old saying "the grass is always greener" well I've been wishing lately that my grass was covered in snow. it's not going to happen! so, I will just enjoy this most amazing weather we are having and be happy exactly where I am right now. today I took advantage of the -not so scorching hot it makes you want to melt- sun and took my class outside for snack time. they love it when I change things up every once in a while. and so I will try to love the 'awwwww' moments in life and see the joy through their little eyes (even if it is just a snack outside)!

Gardening is about enjoying the smell of things growing in the soil, getting dirty without feeling guilty, and generally taking the time to soak up a little peace and serenity. ~Lindley Karstens, noproblemgarden.com

Keeping with the gardening theme at -12°C, I have decided to start my chili peppers today! They will be kept indoors until about April where they will then wander into the greenhouse.
