Looks like tomorrow is the best day to plan yard work. High is 80, it'll be partly cloudy with light winds. Sunday has a 30% chance of thunderstorms, and it looks like overnight Saturday is when they might develop.

I have a pot of taco meat with beans simmering; I'll have some for my dinner today and then it's for leftovers during the week. I'm working to draw down my supplies of canned and frozen goods and this dish is excellent for that. Almost everything but the beef and the black beans came out of my garden (via the pantry or the freezer).

How are your gardens growing? I've seen a few of Alice's Montana pioneers posted. Liz, you've had work done in your yard over the last year or so, will you be able to plant and enjoy this year? And Andrea, are you still building out back or are you able to garden? Did you finish that pergola? Jeri, Linn, and Maryanne, has the snow cleared yet? How about some of our lurkers?
