Knock Out Roses
My Dad planted this knock out rose for my Mom several years before he died. My Mom has never been a gardener and has pretty much left this rose bush to “fend for its self”. She did water it a few times during the hot summer, and apply a rose spray when the leaves turned yellow, but…
Fall is Finally Here
Fall has finally arrived! Gone is the sweltering heat of the summer, and arrived is cool nights and pleasant days. The grass is green and many of my flowers and plants have become rejuvenated. My herb garden was overtaken by weeds, but I discovered one columbine plant had survived along with a foxglove. I…
Feeling A Little Crafty
I was feeling a little crafty today, since the sweltering heat hasn’t allowed me in the garden. I have taken my Gardenchick products to craft shows before but for the last year have become interested in making jewelry. My friends Becky and Dena introduced me to jewelry making at a girls weekend getaway. I haven’t even…
Child Labor
I was working on some pictures for a magazine article on gardening with kids, so naturally I took pictures of my granddaughters. My granddaughters are smart, so involving them in working for my business is a little tricky. We had gathered lavender from my garden several weeks ago, and it had dried out. Now…
Finally Made it to the Beach
Ironically my last post in the winter was about my wanting to go the beach. This summer has been the most miserable in history. Hot, humid, and sauna like. I step out to work at 5:45 in the morning, and my glasses fog up. Now that is humidity! I have continued to water my plants…
Wish I Were on the Beach
I haven’t gone to the beach in a couple of years and I am taking this dreary day to dream of a trip next year. Gulf Coast of Alabama, or Florida. It really doesn’t matter as long as I get there. My friend Shawn took this picture on her trip and I loved the simplicity…
Peppermint foot scrub
Winter has finally made it to north Georgia, and I am not happy. I hate cold weather. We have seen a couple of frosts and today was windy with the highs in the 40’s. Next weeks low is 19 degrees. I won’t be able to function. I know all of you who live up north…
Mystery Bulbs
I found these bulbs in the GARBAGE CAN at work, and of course I had to bring them home. I left them in the basement until cooler weather, and brought them out last week for my granddaughters Mackenzie and Kendall to plant. We will wait to be “surprised” this spring. And yes, it was this…
