gardening

i do not pretend to know how to garden

i usually kill my plants, even cactus and bamboo

but so far...

hoorah! still going strong!

in fact, i took a handful, or two, of greens and fed them to mr. edgar, who enjoyed them.

so i was pretty confident when i wanted to do another two flower beds.

the lonely, empty flower beds...

and now...

and happily, i finally got my fruit tree...

blood orange tree.

hopefully it thrives

also, baked some chocolate chip cookies today.

they're good... not as good as my mom's (even though we use the same recipe) but isn't that always the way?

sigh

hubby is making our second meal in the slow cooker! and i am off to read for a while and get ready for work tomorrow
