I love kale. Especially dinosaur kale-the kale with a thousand names. It is also called: Tuscan Kale, Black Kale, Italian Kale, Nero Tescano Kale, and Lacinato Kale. Its leaves are beautifully dimpled and gorgeously blue-green. When I saute it, the color changes to a most enchanting emerald green. It is so beautiful! And so delicious. I like to saute it in olive oil with garlic. Then I finish it off with Kirin rice wine and a little bit of sea salt. Yum. That’s what we had for dinner along with pork loin in a creamy-mustard sauce. Very delicious.
I so enjoy it when customers at my business select the same plants that I love. Today, people purchased an abundance of yellow double primroses. I’d like to think it was my display idea. However, I was trying to sell fertilizer and what I sold was primroses. I guess a sale is a sale. I’d pick the primroses over the fertilizer myself!
What’s on my to do list for the weekend? I’m hoping to plant groundcover and finish 1 enlarged bed and 2 reworked beds. I need to have a planning meeting with my “consultants”. That happens Thursday evening. Hopefully, I’ll get lots of good ideas. I also have to fit a bike ride in as well. Oh, and we’re signed up to attend Equinox in the Eola Amity Hills. It could be a full weekend. And I wonder why I have a hard time getting up in the morning. Here I’m blaming it on daylight savings time, but maybe it’s just my schedule! By the way, what is a normal schedule?
