poor man's gard{en}

i love the last end of winter...

it reminds you spring

is just around the corner.

and spring means new flowers, vegetables, 

herbs & plants!

but first 

pruning, trimming, uprooting, 

and tilling need to happen... 

just in the last few days we

{well, mostly mr. amazing} 

have been able to assess our

little garden and give it some

much needed attention.

jonathan planted some succulents

today we found three plants on clearance

at our local hardware store.

they are going to look amazing in the front.

well, once we paint the outside of the house

and uproot the roots from those nasty bushes

and, well, that's a start...

and are going to build lattice for our

growing trees and tomatoes to climb

their way up...

and of course i had to bring

the outside in.

since it is finally starting to feel

like spring. i love california winters.

they are quick and allow for being outdoors...

oh, and they mean cheap flowers at the

downtown flower market.

i cannot wait to start painting and planting.

it will have to wait until after the flea market.

there is just too much to do...

and, i am finally feeling back to normal 

after four solid days of being out with the flu.

ugh.

i hope you are enjoying your tuesday friends.

stay warm
