Today is January 18, 2012. For the last three days, I am noticing that the outside is becoming very bright, with all night darkness gone away, by 6:30 am. Yipeee.......soon days will become more longer, the sun will rise higher up in the sky, and spring will be here with the message to start gardening and planting seeds. I can't wait to witness the miracle of tiny seeds becoming plants to produce big, heavy, sweet, delicious, fresh, healthy food for the rest of the world inhabitants. Here is a picture of some of those produce from my garden of 2011. This year I am hoping for more and lots of varieties.
It is about gardening, environment, climate, self-sustainability, growing one's food, organic, novice gardener in our beautiful world.

Nature's Inspiration Movie
http://www.flickspire.com/m/HealthierL433/NaturesInspiration -- Nature's Inspiration Movie: The photographs in this short video are from award-winning photographer, Ken Jenkins, and they are breathtaking. However, this video is much more than beautiful photographs! Peggy Anderson has compiled beautiful quotations from the likes of Emerson, Thoreau, and many others that truly capture the beauty of nature and solitude. Absolute must watch for nature lovers.
Isn't it great to have all that potential, sometimes I think the planning can beat the reality, especially when your tomatoes wont set fruit, the pumpkin gets powdery mildew, the blackbirds dig up all your seedlings etc etc etc. But I do love it anyway. Hope you have a great gardening year.
