Brrrrr.

it's been unseasonably cool here in houston for the last few days. temp was 50ish when i got up this morning.

however, my lone surviving rose seems to be greatly enjoying the cool spell and has put on a spurt of growth.

the lettuce is getting quite leafy and doesn't appear to have been disturbed (yet) by pests. i do think i should have sowed the seeds a little bit deeper; the roots just seem to be barely in the soil.

the two parsley plants i bought and planted a few weeks ago have nearly doubled in size; i think we'll be using some of that this evening. the oregano has also grown quite a bit and is probably ready to be trimmed.

the basil by the back door went into full bloom while we were out of town.
