I got a little matchy-matchy here maybe but I think it’s going to be pretty. Started out with three Eggplants, purple stems and green leaves, but I needed some fillers and went over to the nursery looking for herbs but ended up with a variegated  sweet potato, green with a purple edging on the leaves, a bright fuschia geranium, and the other thing, one of those new petunia looking plants whose name escapes me but this one has purple flowers. It’s portable so I can move it to mow and, like I said, I think it’s going to be pretty once it fills out. My whole garden this year is in pots and …er… stuff. lol I have Pop’s old cement wagon with tomatoes and nasturtiums, more tomatoes in large brightly colored tubs (the tubs were given to me) and assorted other veggie plants in large flower pots. The peas are in the flower bed and not doing as well as I had hoped. Peas do well in cold weather so I thought this would be the year for them. I actually built a fire yesterday as it got down to 39 Thursday morning! In June!

Well, sorry I have not been posting like I ought, Randy has been gone this week and Cori and I have been goofing off. She slept in to nearly 8am yesterday!
But he’s on his way home this morning so I am scurrying around (Yes, I am!) putting up the yarn projects I have scattered around and washing up my sink full of dishes. I really have been goofing off! lol

Just wondering if it really matters if we are vegetarians or not. This vegetable knows it is spring. It was growing roots in my fridge and had little leaflets on top. Trying to grow, still obviously alive. But I had to kill it for our dinner. Well, Nature made it so and I can’t eat sand.

I think it’s the rain rain rain rain rain rain that’s bringing on these dreary fits! The world is certainly green and that’s good but oh so wet. The lilacs and iris are beginning to look a bit worse for wear. The cats have been suffering advanced Cabin Fever, but when I let them out this morning, they declined and went back to bed. I wanted to, but we had looms to build. I know, in a month or less we’ll be complaining about the heat.. happens most every year. Still… right now I can hardly wait!

Hope you aren’t too soggy.

I haven’t quite decided if it’s going to be a pie or sauce for ice cream. Oh these hard decisions! 😉

I ‘borrowed’ this photo that my daughter sent me. She’s bragging about 80 degree sunshine there in Georgia with the dogwood blooming. I had to send her in exchange a photo of my budding weeping willow in the falling snow! 😦

Oh well, it is not (so far) sticking but I just went around the yard yesterday taking pictures of the blooming spring flowers. I noticed this morning that the old peach and the purple plum are blooming. No crop again this year! My new little peach tree is better bred for the area, I guess, as it is being conservative with it’s buds. Well, I hope you saw the sunshine today!

Rain and low sky today made it a good day for burning the pile. Large puddles between the snow berms, too. Not spring yet but heading that way. Nothing much going on. Working in the loom shop and cooking and cleaning… wow! 😀 Won low score at Bunko this evening and lost my Bunko Bitch rhinestone studded pin to another. She took it with only 3 bunko’s whereas I won it with 6! Okay, as you can see I really had nothing interesting to say but I promised myself I’d post regularly so there it is.

This is one of the boxes we have to give away.  Approximatly 2 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ by 1″ deep. You pay postage however, but only what it costs me. Randy has kept these neat and clean. The old labels are still on but you can cover it with your own or remove them if you want. With or without they are useful boxes and I hate throwing them away. We empty a lot of them here in the loom shop. Email me if you want them and how many. I’ll bundle them up and let you know how much and you can pay me via PayPal. I expect he has at least 50, probably more. dorleska at tds dot net
