The weather pattern seems to be shifting and pulling us out of the path of the constant rain and cool temperatures. In Maine, it's common for spring weather to take its time but this year has been unlike any other I can remember. The leaves on the trees are just beginning to pop and lilacs are not fully out yet, but slowly starting. The bleeding heart bushes are beautiful and tulips that did make it through the winter are gorgeous. The rain has slowed so much of spring's flower show, but it feels like what we're starting to see was worth the wait.

This weekend will be a big one in the garden...planting the tomatoes and putting in the seedlings that have been started indoors. A flat of cucumbers, summer squash and delicata squash have been sprouting on my windowsill for weeks now and hardening on the back deck for the past couple of days. They are leggy and eager for sun - like the rest of us.
