Well I’m back from our vacation. We saw some great wildlife and foliage. I thought I would share some of the pictures with you. It was very soothing to wake up every morning and walk outside to birds singing, and leaves rustling gently in the breeze, and dappled sunlight shining down, tinted green from the […]
Height
An important aspect of gardening is making your garden pleasing to the eye. The first thing that comes to mind is color, but often times people forget space and height. Before you plant anything, check the specifications. Seed packets almost always have the expected height noted on the back, as do most seedlings on the […]
This is where I’m staying for the next few days. I was surprised to find it had a cute little garden next to the chimney. Our cats are adjusting well, and we’ve already managed to get lost on the back roads once. Though I’ll have to admit, getting lost was my fault, since I was […]
Just a note to all, I’ll be gone this week. Nothing but a cabin and woods for six days. I’m hoping to post some beautiful pictures from my trip, though I’m not sure I’ll have internet. Check back this week, or at least at the end of the week, to see some wilderness pictures!

You may have noticed that I include very few pictures of my own garden. The truth of the matter is, I’m just getting back into gardening and I’m limited to a small vegetable patch, tending and planting the gardens at my in laws house and the apartment we rent, and a growing container garden on […]

If you are an avid gardener, and you know what earwigs are, then you’ll know that typically they are more of a nuisance than an actually problem. They are about a half to one inch with long antennae and pinchers on their abdomen. They can pinch, though they are not poisonous. Earwigs […]
I must confess that with all my talk of being more environmentally friendly, I’m not much of a recycler. The truth of the matter is I’m not willing to drive an hour to the nearest recycle center. I’ve looked and looked in my area for a recycle bin I can drop things off […]
Some more great Ideas from Arieanna over at Cooking Gadgets. I was particularly intrigued by her Matchstick Garden. A small garden ready to grow, all contained in a match book. They make great favors for a garden party or any type of party for that matter. They would also make a great […]
