My Babies

No, I am not a mother. But my babies are any little seedlings I am growing at the time. For awhile last year I had a basil seedling that I kept on the windowsill in the kitchen. Away from all the nasty slugs that had eaten it's seedling siblings.

At the moment I have some sensitive plants five successes from 9 peat pellets. Yes I know there are those that don't recommend or complain that using peat decreases the peat bogs. But I just wanted to use up the package of pellets I had so I wouldn't feel bad about them sitting around when I use a package of seed starting soil.
It could have been six seedlings but one died off I'm thinking from damp rot. I am still looking for my little spray bottle of chamomile tea that I use to avoid that. Once I have my babies transplanted to some small pots and maybe given to some neighbors with warm hearts and homes the weather here in the Pacific Northwest isn't conducive to the warm weather they like.
Next seeds I will start will be some for me and mom. We got some Bio domes from Parks along with the plugs, so for my mom I will start some Okra, along with petunias, snapdragons, tomatoes and peppers. For me, I'm going to try growing some basil again. Slug and snail just don't seem to scare me off.

second baby sock before frogging.
Does ripping out count as off the needles? I was working on trying to finish a small pair of socks so I could use the needles for another pair of socks. Was still working on the leg, k1 p1 ribbing when I noticed it looked more like a moss stitch so took another look and saw I had dropped a stitch. So in the process of trying to correct it I dropped more stitches did try to correct that but just finally had to frog it. I do have the needles free but would like to just try and knit up that sock. I already have one and that I knit up in a day so I know if I put myself to it I could knit it up and have free needles to start on that sock.
Also I decided to start working on the little heart shaped sachets again. I had knit so many that I had stopped for awhile. But it's thanks to closing all those up that I felt comfortable knitting a sweater and then doing the seaming to put it together. Though I would love trying to knit one up on circular needles and not have to worry about seaming.
