Springtime brings a lot of wonderful things, not the least of which is the return of gardening season. As soon as the weather turns warmer, I head outside to see what plants are starting to sprout. In my perennial gardens it’s always fun to see what survived the winter. Inside my kids love to start seeds. I admit, it’s fascinating to watch the soil and see sprouts start to unfurl from their seeds and take shape as little plants. This year we’re growing a wide variety of basil plants with lots of fun flavors like lemon and lime. I see a lot of pesto in my future!
