Just Plant the Seed!

nesting

September 4, 2013 by admin 8 Comments

Every year around this time something happens in me.

So, this past Saturday early in the morning I began defrosting our freezer and then I headed to… [Read More]

the dirt life

June 26, 2013 by admin 6 Comments

I was in the garden the other morning tackling a job I had put off long enough – weeding one of the raised beds.  As I pulled the weeds out by their roots (ya gotta get the roots!) the thought occurred to me that there were no worms in the bed. Worms are a very… [Read More]

April 6, 2012 by admin 3 Comments

the day to remember fear | horror | disgust | anguish being chased by an angry steer finding a flock of hens – headless uncaring eyes of the dog-owner whose savage canine slaughtered two innocent, loved goats early morning phone calls, “he’s dead, he’s dead.” tears like blood a splintered cross-beam ringing of a blacksmith’s… [Read More]

The past two days have been what summer is supposed to be. I just can’t say it enough, “I LOVE SUMMER.” The breeze is gentle. The temps are near perfect – 83 degrees. The grass is mowed. The garlic is harvested. The porch is clean. The fountain is flowing. The creek is babbling. The flowers… [Read More]

Aunt Lou

June 1, 2011 by admin 21 Comments

In the summer of 1966 I sat under some tall trees, at a picnic table, in my Aunt Lou’s backyard – she had a colorful assortment of flowers growing under the shade of the trees – we were wondering how they grew so well in such deep shade. My Aunt explained that the nursery clerk… [Read More]
