Gardening and Growing

One of the things I love about my job is being able to research and write about topics I find interesting…

This year I'm taking back my beds. The first year we lived here, I wanted to let things go to see what came back and how it came back before I started whacking away. Last year, I was pregnant, losing my job and miserable. I wasn't going anywhere near those beds!

So this year, the beds are in desperate need of loving attention. And silly me, when my parents got their seed catalogs, I borrowed one and ordered $30 worth of seeds. Three gardening books and way too many seeds later, I have great hopes and plans for my beds. Because I am an avid over-achiever and like saving money, I decided to start composting.

But I'd never done it before, so I needed to learn more. Enter the need for articles targeting homeowners, and you have the happy marriage of personal interest and professional work. Now that's what I call multi-tasking!

All I'm waiting for is N to get a few years on him so I can put him to work weeding. : )
