Truth be told, we haven’t been at the ranch for two weeks 😌 we’ve been enjoying a Mediterranean Cruise around the Greek Isles and visits to different ports in Italy. It was full of warm sunny days, salty water, sandy beaches, lots of hiking around (about 60 miles total), relaxation, learning, exploring and having a …

Healing…Reflecting…time…
The plan was supposed to be -- just to go outside and snip a few flowers, I had an empty jar....it needed flowers...what was I supposed to do!? I'm supposed to be healing from surgery - which in and of itself is important, but I'm on a time line....we are taking a little trip mid …

Bucket of Color August 15, 2019 Happy Thursday morning! It's 3:46 in the blessed AM here, and I'm awake...not because I really want to be, but because I'm preparing to go to the hospital to join a club....where to become a member you have to give up a certain part of your anatomy - no …
Late To The Party….
Greetings! I hope you are doing well on this lovely Friday!! The Carnations have finally come into their own!! Poor babies have been struggling along for six months! They've arrived in full color & texture! Next year I'll definitely do more, but they'll need their own bed, no sharing with Honeywort & Zinnias-those are bushy …
A Week of Giving
I decided to take a week to find people to give flowers to. I've been thinking of this ever since I picked my sister up from a dentist appointment several months ago. The dentist does work for people who do not have much money, often times these places tend to give sub-par services and not …

How Do You Measure Success
Happy Tuesday night! I hope your Mother's Day weekend was positive & enjoyable. Mother's day weekend met us with a lot of errands, doing for other's, and little rest - but it was all worth it in the end. Before our weekend even began we were sipping sweet tea on Thursday night overlooking the garden. …
Rome Wasn’t Built in A Day
My seedlings are taking FOREVER to plant....like taking over an hour for me to do one row - granted it is 163 (or 100 if it's the 12 inch spacing) but man, I feel like I'm a turtle in peanut butter when it comes to planting these babies. I have 10 rows....TEN.....that's ten hours of …
