I am part of a community garden in my neighborhood. We've got lots of little sprouts coming up already, and I'm excited about the food that will grow there throughout the spring and summer. I was tasked with making the sign to let people know what is going on in our little corner of the neighborhood. Here's what I did:

I made this delicious dessert - blackberry coconut crumble bars. It was gluten-free and vegan. And it didn't last long. Recipe was from here.

Day 197:
Word from wire.

Day 198:
I've been working on this for several months. Trying to determine the configuration, deciding which photos to hang, getting the photos printed, etc. Finally made it happen! I just need to get a mat for the photo that will go in the white frame in the middle.

Day 199:
Home-made liquid hand soap. Made from a bar of soap, some liquid glycerin, and water. Take that, expensive soap refills! I got the "recipe" from here.

grating the cheese....i mean, soap.

melting the soap with a gallon of water + 2 tbsp of liquid glycerin.
