weirdos in back

so this is so weird....the neighbors behind me are now acting mental. i was outside gardening and the lady makes this weird woo sound like a mentally disabled person would. she actually always makes that noise however in the past i thought she was talking to the cats. now im wondering if she does that just whenever. i always feel like a weird presence from their house. furthermore i have heard bad domestic disputes also. im not sure if they are just off their rocker or some problem with their grip on reality. i can't tell...thought i would share my experience. anyways i got some cleome to come up from seed and heirloom kale. still waiting on foxglove delphinium and a couple others

plants

i have now planted eggplant, tomato, dill and lettuce. i think i also found some melon seeds that might have sprouted out of my compost...so cool. and i have chard andcollard greens. so there are now two crazy guys in the front of my house...i guess they suspected i was missing because some of my lawn furniture had been moved. so now they are making themselves a nuisance to me. i tried to explain that iam not interested in their friendship and complainedto the landlord that they are unwelcome in my space. all good. this year i am also trying to plant some hollyhock ( summer carnival variety) from seed and oh yeah basil. i got a bunch of seeds but some have not come up: cleome foxglove canterbury bells delphinium blue dwarf kale i will keep trying, could be a good season. its been raining the past couple days so everything shall have a good start.

foraging

my new contribution to my daily dosa's are wild greens. i had ordered some veggie seeds a while back (and had also gotten some as xmas presents) but the ones i was really going to need immediately ( i juat got off food stamps) was kale and lettuce to round off my plan. they did not sprout...well the kale didn't. so wondering how to get my veg i looked to my yard...and lo...there are all these dandelion greens growing. i moved them into a bed with the lettuce and now i can add rhe leaves to the dosa as filler. and i got all my sprouts planted ( well some) eggplant, tomato, dill. going well. the dandelion is totally my favorite but i also am getting some lambs quaters so very nice.

herb chutny and crispy dosa

ok i think ive even made another perfection to dosa cooking my way. I have started grinding the rice dry then soaking. I add a little wheat flour and my latest addition is a herb chutny. oregano. mint. rosemary. thyme. white balsalmic vinegar. and also ive been adding much more oil to the pan...it all seems to get cooked through this way. maybe i will add a pic soon. i have been doing brown rice and white rice each on their own and that works well. also a way to make the dosa thin is to use the back of the sppon to smmoth the batter out in concentric circles.
