I am gardener.

 My mother-in-law gave me all the supplies necessary to make an herb container garden for my birthday.  So this week I planted everything and hopefully it will grow.  I say hopefully because I have the black thumb of death when it comes to raising plants.  I have a few dirt plots and many more lonely, empty pots that have become little plant cemeteries in my past.  My husband even gave me a "love cactus" while we were dating.  He knew that a "love fern" a la How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days wouldn't stand a chance against me. (I killed the cactus, case in point.)

So here's to tasty fresh herbs this summer and possibly a bright new future in gardening!
