Update: Onion Experiment

So I have been pretty bad at providing an update for the green onions we have had sitting on the windowsill. But after just two weeks, they doubled in size and now they are just out of control...

And we have cut some off and used it in our cooking, and yet we still have plenty. It certainly works, and we will never have to buy green onions again! We will, however, have to put them in a larger container, as these are just not big enough!

What else can we grow so easily? Anyone know of any other vegetables or fruits that are easy to grow?

In One Month's Time...

1. We had an Open House

Maybee says "Come On In..."

2. We SOLD our house (in one week from contract to close)

3. We moved OUT of our house (one week after closing) on St. Patty's Day

Empty  :(

4. Moved in with the in-laws, since Baby D is due in 2 months, and we don't want to be pressured to find a new house in that time frame. We have more important things to concentrate on!

5. Took a long weekend road trip up to North Carolina. Unfortunately, most days looked like this:

 But Maybee loved all the new smells, and didn't mind the rain...

 

Spring was peeking through the last dreary days of winter

And chipmunks were coming out for food...

Snow and ice melt was making its way down the mountain...

 Foliage was beginning its bloom...

mushrooms on a tree by the stream

 It cleared up enough one day for us to make our way to Highlands, where we shopped, ate delicious food, and saw some art...

 

Outdoor sculpture at The Bascom

 And some waterfalls...

Bridal Veil Falls

Dry Falls

 And spent our nights listening to the quiet stream raging river behind the house.

 

6. AND had my first baby shower (more details to come).

Mom-to-be with Grandmothers-to-be

Whew! That was a LOT in one month, not to mention while you are 7+ months pregnant. I feel like this when I look back....

Since we are now settled and back to a (semi)normal routine, I will be posting with new recipes and baby room updates until Baby D is born. Check back soon for all the happenings!!!
