Pics from Carrboro

A few random pictures from the past weeks.

Homemade chicken soup from a roast chicken, homemade sourdough bread from scratch, and delish pesto-garlic spread. Yay self-sufficient dinner!

Our tulips on Easter. They were just perfect.

My little garden starting out. Lettuce, lots of basil and dill, and mint taking over the place.

Trent watering the happy azaleas.

More tulips in front of our fence. They knew exactly when I needed some cheering up before the oral exams.

Farmers market in full swing. I like how we caught the dude in this picture mid-contemplation about all the baby plant options. It was tough to pick.

The trusty bike helped us get our goodies home.

Starting baby tomato plants and sourdough starter enjoying some sun.

My post orals presents from Trent, a sweet note and delicious ginger chocolate. I've been consuming SO much ginger recently. We went out to dinner the next night with Stephen and Amanda to Acme.. so so good.

My manicure and coconut latte.. just had to prove to Haley I took her advice to the letter.

My sweet Sadie enjoys having me back on earth after all that studying madness.
