Remember I was going to root some grocery store rosemary? I had a ton of rosemary left in the packet after my rosemary chicken and veggies. I left it in the fridge for another week or so before I decided I had better root it.
I picked out six green springs between 2″ and 4″ long and stripped off the leaves from the bottom inch. I filled a narrow glass with some water, added a dash of rooting hormone, plunked the sprigs in the water, and set it by the window.
I love fall, with its cooling weather and changing colors. I love busting out my knitted sweaters and hats, scarves, and gloves, and my giant 100% wool knitted blanket that keeps me toasty warm. When I was an undergrad, fall meant extended weekends raking leaves as a fundraiser for my favorite charity. Not so fun getting up at 7am to go rake someone else’s yard, but at the end you feel productive and happy.
I love fall, except for one thing. Halloween. I hate Halloween.
Survivor has always been pretty hokey in the way that it tries to incorporate “traditional” and “historical” elements of the area into its challenges, but I don’t think I ever appreciated just how hokey until this season.
