Bring The Outdoors Inside!

Since my tulips are nesting in the ground; waiting on the spring to SPRING up...

 Yawn.......snorsville.......
Ho Hum...boring!



I took matters into my own hands and headed to Mr. Roger's store, first initial K, and snagged up some half price tulips! This whole bunch cost me about 6 bucks.

There's A Fungus Among Us

There's a stink outside my front door and nobody's owning up to it.
I turn the finger directly to the usual suspects. My kids.
Everybody brushed their teeth?
Check.  Teeth brushed.
Dogs carrying around any yard kill carcases?
Nope.  Just our socks....that I bought last week ~ to replace the old socks that they carried outside to bury, tear holes in and destroy....
Anybody seen the next door neighbors lately?  They sure have been quiet lately.
Oh ~ never mind, they're not dead, I see them pulling out of their driveway now.
Probably to get away from the stink.
Scan yard for evidence leading up to source of stink.
Ahhhhh, sweet bunny.  He looks so cute.  Hey, wait a minute, he's turning his head away in disgust too.
Concrete bunny can't stand the stink either!!!!!!
How could he? The stink vapors are coming from right in front of his lil nose.

See that brain looking thing?  It's the source of the stink!!! Woof!!!! It's disgusting!!! When you catch a whiff of this, you will be RUNNING to get away from it. 
I dig up foul stink and take it to garden shop.
Gag all the way down the road.
Garden lady tells me it's a fungus from over watering. (Who me???? Over water???) The only way to get rid of it is to dig it up and dispose of it. 
Which is what I'm about to do......
As soon as I can find my gas mask.....

Lettuce eat a decent ham sandwich!!!!


I was in the mood for a ham sandwich with fresh lettuce so I ......

walked to my back yard.
                                                                                                                 
There I found rosemary, chives, parsley, strawberry plants, and 3 types of lettuce.

If you think a winter garden is too much much trouble, think again...
The peeps love it and will want to help you "pick the garden!"
