As the title suggests, I’ve been keeping busy lately by all the performances I’ve been doing!  It seems that once the weather warms up a bit, its non stop belly dance activity!  Here’s a list of some of the venues:  Speak Through Dance: Autism Awareness Show, SLC Sci-Fi Convention, Thia’s Wild West Show, and the NW Rec Center’s Open House!  These are all in the past couple weeks.  The last venue I danced with a new group that I abolutely love!  Here we are waiting to go on.

And on stage.

Other than dancing, I’ve been working more in my garden planting and growing.  Our back yard is cat alley, so I put a bunch of sticks in the ground to keep them out.  We also put up some sun protection, because its getting very warm out there!

My lettuce is getting so big!  I planted purple heirloom beans, heirloom zucchini, and chard in there.  And here are the surviving tomatoes, peppers and basil.

They are slowly making their way along.    I had Joe pick me some of the beautiful flowers from our yard.  I love irises and roses, the smell so good!

Other than all that, we’ve been really enjoying the view from our front porch.

Today I got another 11 lbs of medjool dates shipped to me!  Stay tuned for some more date ball recipes!
