I have slowed down a fair bit on the reading front. I only have a couple of books on the go as opposed to several like I have in the past. I am better luck keeping track of my reading, but the trade-off seems to be that I’m not reading near as much as I … Continue reading »
Garden Progress? Slowly but Surely…
When I initially started planning this blog post I was a little (okay, a lot) concerned about the way my seeds were stored over the winter. I wasn’t particularly careful about my seed storage and didn’t give it much thought so I was hoping my seeds would still be good. I was dreading the idea of having … Continue reading »

As a result, I only have one to share this week and it has already made its appearance on the blog’s Facebook page because I was so excited about it. This photograph happened completely by chance, … Continue reading »

Sunday was the day I have been waiting for for a very long time (as you well know). It was planting day in the household! Well actually, it was a get a lot of things done around the apartment in general day. But that may be a post for another day… The day started out … Continue reading »
