Spring Cleaning

Not only will I be cleaning my physical house over the next week or so, but my virtual one as well. This blog was badly neglected and needed cleaning up. Future posts will include the doings of the Etsy street teams I belong to, the Freethinkers and SANEST - along with posts about gardening and other fun stuff (fun for me, anyway).

Stay tuned!

Fall Garden 2007

It's November 17, and as of yet, a hard frost has not set in. This gave me the opportunity to do a little TLC and picture taking around my gardens. My dahlias needed digging, so I did just that, washed them, and now they are sitting on newspapers in my living room. Once they are dry to the touch I will wrap them in fresh newspapers, put them in grocery bags and store them in the basement until May. There are other, probably better ways to properly store dahlia tubers, but this method has worked for me for years.


A few of the flowers on the south side of the house have managed to hang on...

Welcome!

I'm pleased to have a place to prattle on about my gardens and to show off my jewelry. Stay tuned!
