One of my favourite things to do is sit on the back porch and just listen. Especially on a Sunday morning before 9 am…that’s when the trains start to run for the day. So soothing. So serene. Joy at its finest!Since it’s the dead of winter, and not much is happening out there right now, … Continue reading GWG#5: What does your garden sound like?
GWG#4: Inspiration and Influence
My Dearest Gay, Just a little note to say thank you - thank you for all your gardening help and inspiration over the years. You may not know this but you are my mentor in the gardening department.

500!
Hey there and good morning to you! So excited to have had 500 visitors! Thanks a bunch :)
Did you see that?
Every once in a while something cooler than regular old crates roll down the tracks. Windmills! No blades this time. Did I mention we lived close to the tracks?
Snow Day!
Bor-ing! That's how my snow day is. How about you? Any other snow day-ers out there today? Snow days always remind me of being a kid.

Danger, Danger! Oh, how I love the Veseys catalogue! Decisions, decisions. I've had a copy for about … Continue reading Veseys Catalogue

Hello and Happy 2014! I'm not usually one to make resolutions for the new year, generally because I can't stick with them, oops, but I think it's time to break with tradition. Plus if I put it out there, for the world to see, then maybe just maybe it will be easier to follow through … Continue reading Resolutions
GWG#3: Describe your garden right now
My gardens right now at this very moment...sadly need some TLC, big time! Aside from the fact that it is fall and everything’s going into sleep mode, they really could use a face lift. This spring I added mulch, pulled a weed here and there this summer and planted half a handful of perennials in … Continue reading GWG#3: Describe your garden right now
Dear Old Man Winter
Did we miss fall? Seems like the weather changed from warm and sunny to cold and grey overnight. Yesterday Barrie, ON (about 4 hours away) had snow! In October! I can’t remember that happening since I was a little girl. Dare I say that dreaded 6-letter word that everyone dislikes so much? Winter...that’s right, winter...coming … Continue reading Dear Old Man Winter
