growing: part 1

We just returned from Hong Kong and lo and behold, spring has kind-of-almost-barely-just-a-little-teensy-bit come to Sapporo. From under the melting drifts of snow emerge the first tiny green shoots and long abandoned bicycles, yippee!

Time to start cultivating an array of herbs (mostly Vietnamese and Italian) and greens that will, with nervous tending and south facing windows, grow into small plants just in time to be moved outside with arrival of actual warmth. Our first experience with both starting seeds indoors and gardening from the comfort of the dining table. Fingers crossed...
