Petie's Blog

Just trying this out. I've been attempting to create my own website/blog. Dh says I'd never keep it up, so this is a good test!

Today is blustery. They say that rainy days are so gardeners can get the housework done, but all I want to do is start a fire and watch a movie with popcorn.

Volunteered at school today. I was reading mom for ds7's class, and helped with math in ds5's class. On day three of a cold, three hours at school wiped me out.

I need to get the garlic in. It's been too warm and dry to do it yet. The rabbits have devoured the kale. So far they have left the lettuce alone. Our pumpkins this year are almost florescent orange; they are so bright. I have a couple of acorn squash, too, which I need to bring in before the crows/squirrels/rodents get them. I was very disappointed in the amount of squash we have this year. Someone told me that you can't have pumpkins/acorn squash/zucchini in the same garden or they won't produce?

Guess that's it for now. Not very interesting but there you are.
