So yes, we're on green now. And the first thing that comes to mind is plants. And... I'm gonna have to skip out on the photosynthesis babble, at least for now. Sometime, I'll get back to it.
My excuses for not blogging? Well... besides all the usual home stuff, I'm taking a summer class (health science, woot!), got a small part-time job (eeee!!!!), trying to keep up with my writing, and making afghan crocheted items to sell (still testing out those waters). And fighting with the internet.
Green:
Grass, ferns, moss, basil, rosemary, thyme, and oregano.
The last four are herbs growing in our sun-window in the kitchen. They're kinda an experiment - using actual living herbs instead of dried ones bought in the store. So far, all of them except the rosemary have been used. A basil leaf, torn into small shreds, was cooked into tomato soup - delicious! And basil, thyme, and oregano were all used in making spaghetti sauce, at half the amount the recipe called for. It was a bit strong, but very good. At some point (meaning, sometime in the next month), I'm planning on trying to dry them, and also planting some garlic (sooner than the drying, since growing that takes about 5 months).
Random Factoid: Green is a highly unlucky color for cars.
