Well, no, you probably cannot smell the basil, garlic and tomato yet. I mean, it's February, right?
(Unless you live in a warm climate or have a kick-arse greenhouse) But, I have noticed a plethora of mail order seed and plant catalogs trickling through my door these days. I get so excited when this happens. It brings the life back into me, and beats the heck out of an otherwise sucky winter day. I'll leaf back and forth through the pages, eyes glazed over by the mouth-watering heirloom tomatoes, squash, and cukes. I'll dog-ear the pages. They'll get all wrinkly and worn. Ahh, planning a garden is such a labor of love.
Sooo, in preparation for
spring planting, I am giving you a planter recipe freebie! Oh, and that planning labor of love stuff, well, I've already done that for you. This printable is all about a favorite appetizer of mine: bruschetta. I wanted to put a little twist on the ye olde "planter recipe," with more of the edible end product in mind, vs. a food-themed planter like my last Asian planter. This planter recipe, once installed, will give you the ingredients to create endless varieties of bruschetta. I've even included a link where you can access lots of yummy bruschetta recipes. Some are very simple, others very savory, and some even a little sweet. That's the beauty of bruschetta!

If you decide to give this a go, please be sure to check you area's freeze/thaw times. I am known to jump the gun with spring planting because I get so excited over it. I wouldn't want your planting to be in vain, after all, it's still winter. As always, if you try this planter, send me some photos and I will post them on the blog.
Happy planting
and eating!
