dirt, earthworms and tomatoes

[ppfuf]

Last night I added some fertilizers and soil amendments to the herb garden and turned most of the soil over. I've got two tomatoes, an Ace and an Early Girl, in the ground. I moved the two non-tasty sage plants (white sage and another type I can't remember right now) to the planter between the hottub and DogLady's fence so if I send GM to the garden for ingredients he won't come back with the wrong leaves. This year I should make the plant map I keep promising him. The earthworms seem to be flourishing. 
This year's weirdness is that neither OSH nor HomeDespot had basil plants. Is there some basil drought I am woefully ignorant of?  I'll try the fancy plant place and the farmers' market this weekend, in case there is anything interesting, but I really need some basils.

I just saw pots of basil at my Nob Hill Foods for $1.79 apiece. They also had rosemary. If you don't turn any up, let me know before Mists Investiture and I can pick some up for you.

Thank you kindly, but LearnTeach promises to send basil seedlings home with GM after the war tomorrow. I also found some at Summerwinds. I shall soon be pesto enabled!
I'm looking forward to seeing you at Investiture...or A&S if you are going.
