Hello and welcome to the new Observation Desk blog here at my new site www.katielcarroll.com. The tea water is on (the black dragon pearls are standing by) and the scones are in the oven (blueberry jam not optional…it’s just too delicious).

This is my real, live desk. It’s way too messy to be functional. I actually use the other desk in the home office (which technically is my hubby’s desk…thanks, hubby!).
Things may look a bit different around here, but all the old posts and all your great comments have scuttled on over to the new desk. There’s some bonus stuff too, like my author bio and books page. Look for more content coming soon, including information about my school visit program. Of course you can always use the handy-dandy contact page to send me an e-mail.
I’d love to know what you think of the new site (but really I only want compliments and you can stuff the bad thoughts!). Stay tuned for some posts on the great crops I’ve been enjoying and I think it’s time we had a science update already! What have you all been up to lately?
