You chose the least comfortable option at a fork in the road and it turned out to be a wise decision as it helped you to overcome unjust fear.

It's your first naturewalk in three months. Halfway you are greeted by two wrens twittering a meter away from you. The cherry on top is a woodpecker trying to destroy a dead tree that's in its way. Thank you mother nature, that was kind.

@gigalos
never ever forget rosemary in your herb garden
to see the rosemary has survived the winter on your balcony
to have its awesome smell on your fingers after you have fondled it

Driving home, bellies full of warm soup, the March sun pierces through the windshield and fills my daughters' eyes with magic, the color of a shallow sea.
ah, is this not happiness....

Rosemary, the herb of love, luck and friendship.
Roast lamb garnished with sprigs of fresh rosemary, the herb's aroma on your fingers and filling the air. Smiles as you bring dinner to the table.

(RSR, bring your delicious artisan bread. All we need is a vintner, any takers?) |

Plum/RSR, can I join? I will bring the rosemary  It's only seed right now but late summer I should be able to harvest some. I don't plan on growing grapes yet.. The soil in my garden doesn't have the right 'terroir'..

Although I have some Maui Wowie like herbs still left over from my other experiment, I won't bring those as I promised those to my aunt, just the rosemary

slowly developing cooking skills:
a spoon of honey, a spoon of mustard, a squeeze of lemon juice, crushed walnuts, one chopped tomato, a clove of garlic, spring onion, roasted pine nuts, crumbled honey goat cheese and a chopped mix of lettuce...

The first blush and bloom of the cherry blossom trees, the most divine frothy celebration of life. They make me glad to be alive.

The times we feel so alive because we got
to see what love truly holds
the times we forgave and it released us from the burden
the times we said thanks for a helping hand and all we felt was gratitude-
the times I've seen the women in my life go out of there way on purpose to make sure us guys were took care of.....
the times I've seen my dad work all month to make sure there was food on the table
in each theres a special set of gifts - an ability to give something back without saying a word.....

To give with no expectation of return.
To care for someone because you love them.
To be an old-fashioned girl who enjoys looking after the men in her world because they've worked like dogs.
God bless these daily graces.
