    I know it's only January, but this is the time to think spring!  This 2008 the Herb of the Year is Calendula.  There will be plenty of this around at Passionate Platter and my home garden.  My garden resolutions will be:
       Include more heirloom seeds and cultural varieties; Italain tomatoes, tiny cherry tomatoes, eggplants, asian and itlaian latin peppers, and asian greans. I will also try to label my beds better. Don't think you will remember what you planted and where you planted it! I keep wooden spoons and a dry marker by the garden to write the name of the plant on the sppon and stick it into the garden bed!
