Green Thumb.

The past month has been pure insanity, with weddings and camping trips and drives to and from St. Louis, so blogging has been the least of my concerns!

However, I have embarked on a new journey that I wanted to share: gardening!

It all started with a Yellow Pear Heirloom Tomato plant that a friend gave me. I've been wanting to start growing herbs since last summer, but was lacking motivation to actually buy the supplies and give it a shot. Thankfully, this tomato plant has jumpstarted my drive to have a little garden! For now, I'm going to try the tomatoes (I'm not confident that they'll survive, but what the heck), rosemary, oregano, and lemon balm (can't wait for some iced tea with a hint of lemon!).

My parents and grandparents seem to have been blessed with a natural green thumb, so I'm hoping that gene reveals itself in me along this journey.








Also, I'm leaving out pictures of the tomato plants because they're tiny and they are not as pretty as my herbs :)

Peace, love & green thumbs.
