Waiting for Spring

I'll be starting the tomato seeds this weekend, using seed trays and a grow light. The feed store where I get the kidz' dogfood will be selling pepper plants, I assume when it's warm enough to plant. I'll be planting strawberries for the first time. Assorted herbs. I'll be trying raised beds this year, a 4x8 foot patch that, I hope, will produce enough for me to attempt canning. If not, maybe there will be enough for freezer sauce and jam and lots of veggies.

I will be using the deck planter again, but for herbs and flowers only. Last summer's upside-down tomatoes didn't do very well. Two of the four plants grew very well, but they only produced a few tomatoes each. All in all, a waste of time, unfortunately.

I still have plenty of dried oregano and rosemary, but I may still grow fresh. Thyme. Parsleys.

I'm looking forward to this.

Balsamic vinegar

Can anyone recommend a nice brand of vinegar for use in salad dressings?
