I Like This – April 1, 2011
- A collection of career items I found interesting this week.
- Blanche Vaughan's perfect spring raddicciho rissotto – March 30, 2011 – I am always a sucker for risotto and this sounds like a great variation on the 2 we already make. I am not a big vegetable eater, but I do like radicchio in salads so I think it would be fine here.
- How to Turn a Pallet into a Garden – March 25, 2011
- How the iPad 2 Glass Bends to Incredibly Extreme Angles [Video] – March 25, 2011 – This looks like a fun project to try, especially for those with limited space like a balcony. I could see growing strawberries on something like this rather than a strawberry pot.
- Seven things to plant in your parkway that are better than turf – March 25, 2011
- Book The Dry Garden: 'Reimagining the California Lawn' – March 25, 2011 – I will try and catch up with the authors as they make their tour nearby. I could use a lot of advice like this in sprucing up my own garden.
