Here's the lettuce. It's been growing for months from seed...and I'm not too confident that it will ever get any taller. In fact, I know it has long passed its harvest date. Oh well, for now it's still a pretty sight.

Next up: oregano, started from seed. I'm so proud of the seedlings!

This is my resurrected basil. I have killed this plant probably 50 times, and it has faithfully come back. It's even been through a bout of aphid attacks! It is a real trooper. In the background, you can see more oregano and the beautiful, unrelenting mint.

And, finally, another shot of the oregano. I love this container--it's a drawer from a really old fridge. My mom wanted to use it as a planter, so my stepdad shot two drainage holes in the bottom with a pistol. That's just how we do things "out on the ranch." I was so happy to bring this piece of country to the city with me. Thanks, Mom!

And later today... a note about last night's dinner! Here's something to whet your appetite...the exact quote was, "This is incredible. Nothing short of incredible."
