Happy Sunday evening! It was a chilly day today - and could have been a super messy day, but thanks to my new amazing rain coat & bibs it was a very pleasant day indeed! I even have new boots - it's amazing how much of a difference the right tool makes! I took care …

Missed Windows….
Happy Saturday night dear friends! Things have been moving right along here at the ranch! Lots put in soil, but not a lot of each one....about 15-25 of each (if there is multiple colors then there are 15-25 of those) I wanted more varity, it is so difficult to only plant 15-25 of each seed …
And so it begins….
Finally managed to get some seeds in the dirt January 31st! I planted Lavender, Bee Balm, Eucalyptus, Snap Dragons, Geraniums, Petunias, Lisianthus, and Chinese Lanterns. All but the Snap Dragons are new to me. I have no idea what I am doing! So excited to say that I already have a few babies popping up. …
Something new….Seed Bouquets
I'm so excited to announce I'm officially selling my Seed Bouquets. I've heard people are tired of giving and receiving things and stuff - sweets are nice, but how about a lovely Seed Bouquet?! It was an idea that came to me at 3 am about a week ago, I jotted down a few ideas …

‘Tis the Season….in life….
I've often heard, and fully believe that life is like a year long journey; we have Spring (our early years), we have Summer (our amazingly fun years) Autumn (where things settle in and are great), then there is Winter (where things slow and come to an end). I'm currently approaching my Autumn, maybe I'm in …
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 …
Exclusive Club Member
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 …
