crazy spring

matilija poppyI guess some people have more money to spend than you might think if you watch the news, because the nursery was swamped with customers for the past couple of weeks.  Vegetable transplants don't stay on the bench more than a day or two before they are snatched up.  Annual color is selling better than it has in years - people seem to crave colorful flowers! I think it's a pretty cheap way to feel hopeful.  It's nice to see people getting in touch with what's fundamental in life.  So maybe this 'economic downturn' isn't all bad.

I love this, Mommy! Keep it up! Do this daily, or at least weekly, with happenings in your garden, what's in season, and other fun stuff like that. I'm sure you could gather some interested folks and become an internet celebrity in no time. Love you!
