Update: The outdoors

The backyard is slowly coming along, but we're pretty sure that next year will require a major overhaul -- ripping up the grass, putting down sod, proper borders for the mulch. Some things just don't turn out right on your own. At night, though, when the candles are lit, the torches are burning and the string lights are on, it's quite pretty.

Rock Garden No. 1 -- with cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, and two flowering baskets that are hangin' on

Basil, straight ahead -- 10 minutes later, all was turned into pesto

Rock Garden No. 2, side of the house: Green lettuce, red lettuce, and two more players to be named later

Sage and rosemary

  2. They turned out pretty good ... until we went on vacation! Then everything died. :)
