ads

Finally...a twenty-four hr menstruum of sunshine! And don't yous know nosotros were out inwards it for a expert component subdivision of the afternoon. We had to driblet Mike's truck off for a repair inwards the morning, as well as and then nosotros did our grocery shopping. When nosotros got home, nosotros had lunch, as well as and then Mike took his afternoon nap spell I got busy working on the So Yelo mug rug. I was this far when he was ready to larn going on the greenhouse clean-up.


It's thus expert to convey Big Bertha dorsum inwards the sewing room, as well as may I only say, she's doing a fabulous job.

We didn't convey a large love apple tree crop in conclusion year, as well as thus it solely took well-nigh an hr to convey things shipping shape. Don't live fooled past times this side past times side image...it makes it appear equally if the greenhouse extends into side past times side week. Actually, it's well-nigh viii feet from the door to the window. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 overnice size.


All those dark cords hanging downwardly are sprinkler heads for the drip irrigation system. When the tomatoes larn further along, we'll seat those to work. For now, I convey them sitting inwards former baking sheets. I tin add together a trivial H2O to the baking sheets, as well as the tomatoes suck it upward through their trivial roots.


These are all Romas...the solitary ranger in that place on the correct is a cherry tomato. Today, I'm hoping to larn it planted inwards ane of the whiskey barrels inwards front end of the house. When I desire cherry tomatoes, I only desire to measurement out the door as well as consume them where I stand.

Also, nosotros were dealing amongst bags of potting soil. I convey a bin at the far correct side of the greenhouse that volition jibe well-nigh a handbag of potting soil. We had 3 bags from an outing in conclusion week, as well as in that place was unopen to left from in conclusion year. Mike emptied equally much equally he could into the bin, as well as and then I used equally much equally I could to fill upward the planters for lettuce as well as other seeds. Now the lettuce is planted.


I've given upward thinking I tin cry back what is planted where. The seeds are barely covered amongst soil, as well as thus I comprehend them amongst plastic wrap to proceed them moist.


Once the seeds convey germinated, I'll uncover them. Also, I planted a bunch of other seeds. This year, I'm planting 3 zucchini plants as well as lots of sunflowers.


These are the ones I'm going amongst this year...they're genuinely the same seeds from in conclusion year.


Also, if you've been next for a while, yous mightiness recall that I brought dorsum unopen to poppy seeds from the town of Adair inwards Ireland. I purchased unopen to seeds spell nosotros were in that place as well as brought them dorsum to the states. These are the ones I saw inwards Ireland. Pretty, huh?


So anyway...I had unopen to for Mae as well as unopen to for me. I tried sowing mine straight into the ground, as well as they didn't come upward up. Mae has had huge success amongst them, as well as thus she saved unopen to seeds for me. And all of that to say that I planted unopen to inwards pots yesterday. Once they've germinated, I'll seek transplanting them into the ground. And if they don't come upward up again, Mae is my dealer. Just sayin'. It's expert to convey a daughter-in-law amongst a light-green thumb.

While nosotros were out yesterday, I noticed that the clematis is getting ready to bloom. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 few warm days, as well as these flowers should opened upward up as well as seat on a show.


So I'm pacing myself on the yard work, as well as that was all I was upward for yesterday. I came dorsum within as well as finished upward So Yelo. By slow afternoon, I had the binding sewn on equally well.


I used a metallic element thread to stitch the spoked wheels.


We're looking frontwards to unopen to lovely conditions over the side past times side calendar week or so. This morn nosotros could finally encounter Mt. St. Helens which has been hiding behind the clouds always since nosotros got home.


Today's agenda includes getting out as well as pulling weeds. Like I said, I'm going to footstep myself, as well as thus I'll foremost amongst the culinary herb garden as well as and then encounter how I feel. When I've pulled my fill upward of weeds, I'll larn dorsum into the sewing room. Next upward is the Apr block for Tuxedo Tales. It yet needs top-stitching.
