change of seasons

I am starting to feel the urge to move on to spring foods.   Soon the winter crop of carrots will be gone.  But coincidentally I am ready to move on.  I'm ready for a change in my daily meals.   I feel like I'm just clearing out the pantry to prepare for the transition.  Make room for the spring greens!  I'm sure how I will prepare them...

I've been picking kale from my garden and steaming it. It's last fall's planting coming back. The mesclun is still tiny. You wouldn't believe how beautiful the dogwood and redbud trees are here. It's like the earth is just waking up.

sounds lovely! I have kale and spinach popping up from last year. actually I can pick the spinach. I'll do that...The tree buds here are just popping, so we're seeing tiny green leaves. The grass just turned green. The main activity so far has been the birds but the vegetation is finally getting going.
