Spring bounty

My favorite spring lettuce mix comes from Pinetree Seeds. It's a colorful mix of red, pale green, medium green, and even red-freckled leaf lettuces in a variety of shapes. I love the visual variety almost as much as the tasty salads.

Naptime

Cats choose odd spots for naps. Although maybe if you're a cat, napping on the roof doesn't seem strange. No dogs sticking their wet noses in your ear. No geese tweeking your tail. Nothing to worry about except a little rain . . . and hey, with a fur coat like that, it takes a while for the wet to penetrate.
