i had two good hours

for two whole hours today my head didn't hurt! it came back, but i got lot done while i was feeling better. i baked my lemon sugar snap cookies, which turned out beautifully. just the right blend of lemon and butter and sugar. i'm bringing them to work tomorrow, because they made a lot. they are delicious, though. i sort of want to hoard them for myself.

i also weeded the little patio to the side of the apartment, although while i was out i forgot to pick up a lawn bag to put all the weeds in. right now they are in a big ugly stack, but i'll get them taken care of soon enough. i went to home depot and found a pretty jasmine plant; out of all the plants i left behind when i moved i miss that one the most. i also got some herb seeds and made a teeny windowsill garden. i'm hoping to grow a lot of basil this summer; the sun here should be great for that. it was hard to grow in seattle, either way too much rain or not enough, and hardly ever enough sun. right now i'm only growing basil, chives and flat leaf parsley, but that's what i use most of to begin with. i'm not much of a green thumb, but i do like to try.
