Google is failing me, people (and frankly, this isn't the first time)

tomato, parsley, cilantro and basil

I am not even sorry
when I pull the wrong thing
Because I love the smell of
dirt and
Cilantro
on my fingers.



I wrote out this poem on a sticky and have pasted it to my computer at work. I stare at it and think about dirty fingernails when my job gets alternately too hectic or too boring to handle.

The only problem is I don't know who wrote it.
Why I didn't write down the author, I have no idea. Perhaps there wasn't one where I saw it. I have a faint recollection that I may have read it in a forum at You Grow Girl, but I haven't seen it since.

Can anyone help me?

Thank-you!

Now that I see that link I remember going there to check out her site. I don't remember what brought me there except that I've wandered into many sites lately that have to do with winter gardening.

How did you find it?
I wonder why Google didn't pick it up for me. Perhaps I'm blaming the instrument when I should be blaming the user...

I can't help, sorry, but I like your blog and the challenges and joys raising a kid. That's exactly what I'm trying to do.

I typed in "dirt and cilantro on my fingers" into msn search engine and it popped up. That engine seems to work so well for me, but not for other people I know. I don't know why.

I typed in "when I pull the wrong thing" *in quotes* into Google and it came up. Go figure ;)
