			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It came to my attention that the RSS feeds for Sweet Vitriol weren&#8217;t functioning properly. I apologize for the inconvenience. I had inadvertently broken it while puttering about making a few cosmetic and code changes. Sorry!</p>
<p>Since the feeds weren&#8217;t working, I held off making the seed-starting post that I had planned for today. I believe the oops is fixed now, and that I can return to my regularly not-so-scheduled postings. In the works are the seed-starting post I mentioned, a post on garden tools, tomato varieties I&#8217;ve grown, and the beginning of the new garden beds. I promise pictures and excitement, or at the very least pictures.</p>
<p>In the meantime, Colleen over at <a href="http://www.inthegardenonline.com/">In The Garden</a> would like your opinion: <a href="http://inthegardenonline.com/serendipity/index.php?/archives/286-Input,-Please!-How-many-blogs-do-you-want-to-be-able-to-nominate.html">Is there widespread support for being able to nominate more than three blogs, or should I leave it as-is?</a> Let her know- maybe we&#8217;ll all be able to add a couple more blogs to our nomination lists!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yesterday was <a href="http://maydreamsgardens.blogspot.com/2007/02/garden-bloggers-bloom-day-inaugural.html">bloom day</a>, but you wouldn&#8217;t have known it around here. After a few days of warm &#8220;open-window&#8221; weather, we&#8217;re back into the cold and snow flurries. The weather can&#8217;t make up it&#8217;s mind, and as a result the flowers have decided four-square against coming up yet. Even the bulbs are just barely showing timid growth. Even this native to gloom and drizzle will be glad when all this gray is gone.</p>
<p></p>
<p><img src="http://ergotism.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/anubias1.png" width=200>Now, that&#8217;s not to say that there&#8217;s nothing blooming in the <i>house</i> of the ether garden! <a href="http://ergotism.org">Jeremy</a> is having some swimming success with one of his aquatic plants, the <i>Anubias barteri</i> (possibly v. nana). In addition to this lovely bloom, there&#8217;s another bud stalk reaching it&#8217;s way upwards which I belive shall unfurl itself within a few short days.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Sweet Vitriol is also blooming. You may have noticed a few new items in the sidebar. Because I know how anxious we all are for something to happen in our gardens these days, I&#8217;ve added a <a href="http://twitter.com/ethermaiden">twitter</a> update widget. I&#8217;ll keep quick little updates running there, giving the heads-up on upcoming posts and the like. Also added to the sidebar is a handy link to the Mouse and Trowel Award <a href="http://mouseandtrowel.com/?page_id=24">nomination form</a>. Nominations are open until April 15th, I already made my nominations- did you?</p>
