My Frozen Potting Shed


As I longingly looked out my window at my garden and potting shed on Sunday, I noticed how cute my shed looked dressed in winter white. Standing guard keeping a watch out for spring. Soon I will be busy planting - seed catalogs have already started to arrive in my mailbox. I am sooooo looking forward to working again in my garden! Soon...little shed will I be busy inside you...soon.

Exploring the Spice


I have heard that you should clean-out your spices every year - and so when looking at my spice cupboard I find some very old spices in it - some are still in "Kroger" tins - we do not have a Krogers here and I've lived in Michigan for over 13 years already...sign that I need to do some cleaning (I'm wondering if some of these tins are now considered antiques...lol).


I began by making a list of what I would need to replace and I thought that I would visit my favorite spice shop to do some re-stocking....and this is totally why I love Pezseys as I shared in an earlier post, I bought all these spices for only $26. Can you believe it!!

It was great cooking this weekend with fresh spices - I could really tell the difference! Look at your own spice cupboard - and if you have old spices like I did - make a change - you will be glad you did!
