I've been lax about following up on being double tagged for a meme. Speedbump Kitchen and The Allergic Kid both got me and I've been a bad girl and haven't responded.What can I say? The weather here has been fantastic! My herbs are growing like crazy and so are the zucchini, green beans and tomatoes. However, my cucumbers are just not cooperating. I have plenty of flowers (see the image to the left) and the bumblebees love them but not a single cucumber has formed!? Luckily, I have my father-in-law to trade with. His zucchini aren't producing but he has a ton of cucumbers. He also let me have all of his rhubarb and I made a big batch of compote and dried some for an experiment. I'm thinking of trying out this rhubarb cupcake recipe that uses compote and trying a different spice combination. But back to the meme...

My Random:
1. When I was a kid most people called me Margi (no e) and that's how I learned to spell my name.
2. When I grow lettuce I never pick enough and it all goes to seed. I really think lettuce flowers are pretty.
3. I was a vegetarian for over 7 years and the food that broke my resolve was beef jerky.
4. I have a BS in Ecology.
5. I couldn't eat cooked carrots while I was pregnant.
6. I love going grocery shopping when I'm on vacation. I hunt down local health food stores, co-ops and markets like other people look for museums and theme parks.
