I tagged you anyway. I did give you until July to do it, though. Really.<BR/><BR/>Here are the rules (copied from the original blogger who started this):<BR/>1. Write your own six word memoir<BR/>2. Post it on your blog and include a visual illustration if you’d like<BR/>3. Link to the person that tagged you in your post and to this original post if possible so we can track it as it travels across the blogosphere<BR/>4. Tag five more blogs with links<BR/>5. And don’t forget to leave a comment on the tagged blogs with an invitation to play!Sherriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01967844327055630854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196839762405070691.post-36809030772765812482008-03-21T08:11:00.000-06:002008-03-21T08:11:00.000-06:00I like the 'adolescent' look of the spinach in the photo - gangling and growing and seeming to inhale food and then suddenly 'beefing out'. <BR/><BR/>And yes! to your comment on being connected to 'home' through the <BR/>simple act of growing things.<BR/><BR/>On site spinach reminds me of climbing malabar red spinach - I hope to track down a plant or two this year as I have had no luck starting it from seed - one plant in a pot on a deck will provide me with snacking on the small green succulent leaves for the entire season. I wonder if you have experience of it.Karenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09469885991232450604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196839762405070691.post-83060459485139988122008-03-20T08:39:00.000-06:002008-03-20T08:39:00.000-06:00You're welcome to pop out for spinach salad anytime. And I'm contemplating a cold frame for next winter, because I really like the greens from my garden better than anything I can buy. They're tastier, greener (in both senses), they don't cost nearly a much, and best of all, they connect me with my terroir - the soil and air and climate that define my home. <BR/><BR/>SusanSusan J Tweithttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07672965940786234043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196839762405070691.post-37891349517044708732008-03-19T22:24:00.000-06:002008-03-19T22:24:00.000-06:00Spinach is looking mighty good, there, Susan! I remember when we used cold frames for our winter gardens.<BR/><BR/>Watch out. I might pop over for a little portion of spinach salad one of these soon days!<BR/><BR/>Janet Riehl<BR/>www.riehlife.comJanet Grace Riehlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03921731725804450430noreply@blogger.com
