Pulling out a new roll of paper towels, I noticed this inspirational thought printed across the top:
“Gardening is a way of showing you believe in tomorrow.”
They clearly haven’t seen my recent attempts. I mean, we’re as incurably optimistic as they come. The Bingleys of the family! But if you were to look at our garden we’d probably be showing:
“The end has come, fellas, we’re all gonna diiiiiiiie!”
For the record, I’m just going to grow a geranium this year, and make sure my rose and fig bushes survived from last year. Or so I say right now. 😉
I am an author and domestic engineer enjoying unbounded domesticity with the husband of my dreams, three fine brave rascally knight errants, seven lovely princesses-in-training, twelve chickens, an indoor cat, and an outdoor cat. And bees, coming soon.

I’m with you! My brother in law keeps giving me these lovely plants, and the most successful are my (still living!) carnivorous plants.
