It’s happening—my first cucumbers are out! 🌱 It always feels a little magical to see those tiny green leaves emerge, full of promise. And it’s not just the cucumbers—my leeks are starting to grow too!
Of course, the cucumber is an indoor one. It’s way too early to plant them outside, but just knowing that things are already growing gives me hope for the season ahead. There’s something so rewarding about watching life sprout from the soil, especially in these still-cold months.
Every little sign of growth reminds me that spring isn’t too far away. For now, I’ll keep tending to these early starters and dreaming of the garden to come. 🌿✨

Why? Everyone is commenting for ages, and then randomly one is a spammer 🙂

I suspect only a subconsciousness of one of the Happiness engineers at WP know 🤣

Haha, that sounds about right! 🤣 Sometimes, it feels like WordPress runs on a mix of code and pure mystery. Hopefully, the subconsciousness in charge sorts it out soon!

I just check my spam on a regular basis for legit comments. WP has done that forever. It’s just one of those things 😁

I don’t remember having this problem 10 or even 5 years ago. After taking a four-year break, I’m back, and WordPress has changed significantly… or at least it feels so. Also, a lot of my earlier followers are gone… I don’t know why, I miss them!

Oh, I am sorry this happened. Some people unfollow when no new posts come up, I suspect. But I certainly have the spam problem for a long time 🌹

No, I don’t care about follows. The blogs are there, but no updates 😦 I sent emails – no response… sad!

Balsamic or Ranch! Balsamic makes me pucker, it’s so good! 😂

Haha, I totally get that! Balsamic vinegar can be so tangy, but it’s definitely a favorite around here, too. Ranch has its charm, but there’s something about balsamic vinegar that really hits the spot!

I need to make it through this year, and I believe it will take up a lot of my focus—hopefully leaving less room for other worries. 🙂
