Spring has been teasing us in the Chicago land area lately. The birds are chirping, the tulips are awakening from their winter slumber and the sun is shining. Sometimes the sun even shines enough to counter balance the frigid outdoor air.
The warmish days of spring bring to mind fresh greens. We patiently watch the little spinach and mesclun seeds I sowed in our cold frame a few weeks ago. I just bought some arugula seeds and I think I'll sprinkle a row or two with hopes they'll take off just as we've polished off the spinach.
Every girls loves a crisp peppery arugula salad, particularly when paired with a bit of sweet fruit.
Especially perfect on a sunny spring day.
Funny post. I just gave my girls grapes and spinach for the first time this morning. It's a sunny 75 here but that can always change in a flash!
