Spade to Fork Organic Herbal Garden and Friends

My husband recently had a milestone birthday - a really big one! And with that came the desire to move from Capitol Hill to a more sedate and navigable neighborhood in Virginia. After all, our grandson and his family moved from down the street to Virginia five years ago and I retired from the Library if Congress three years ago. So, it was time. Before moving to Capitol Hill we lived in the Midwest where we had the nicest friends and colleagues. We think about them often and try to visit at least once a year. We even thought about moving back to the Midwest but the weather is simply too dreadful! We received an unexpected package in the mail the other day that reminded us again of our ties to Wisconsin - a lovely organic herbal garden from Spade to Fork. Our friends from Wisconsin know how much my husband enjoys cooking, and this was such an appropriate gift for him. He thinks only edible items are worth giving and receiving. So now he is studying up on how to best proceed. In fact we just brought our outdoor garden indoors since we lost our tiny patio and were thinking about planting some herbs. How timely this is. So every time we look at, and eat, the wonderful herbs we plan to grow we will be reminded of kindness and friendship. Thanks so much for thinking of us! We are so lucky to know you.
