This is my debut post to the "Me and My Monday" group.

This is me and my junior gardener, aka my son Joey.  I wish I could say that he's helping me garden out of the sheer joy of getting into the dirt and beautifying our yard - or in this case because of the promise of delicious dishes later this summer - but not really.  He's doing it to earn money to buy his next Webkinz.

Me and My Little Gardener

(I could've also titled this post "Me and My New Haircolor" but I didn't think that would be that interesting, especially given that it's not drastic enough for anyone who doesn't see me every day to notice.)

Even though Joey pretended to be all about the money, I think he secretly enjoyed labeling my herb pots. 

This could be the next hit for Simon & Garfunkel

I painted the bottom parts of each pot with chalkboard paint.  Fun, huh?  It's hard to see, but in addition to writing the name of each herb, he also drew a picture of each.  Being a realist, he looked at the picture on the front of each seed packet so that his drawings would look like the actual plant.  He's so my kid.

Show us your favorite photograph.

This is an old one but I always loved it.  Bailey was about three years old, and this is the garden that Brian made for me off the garage of our old house.  I sure do miss that backyard; it was so nice.  And as an unrelated side note, I see by looking at the photo properties that this picture was taken on our sixth wedding anniversary.
