This has been one of those weeks where everything seem completely off...even my posts seemed weak...but I had a touch of the flu & I didn't get anything done, including my gate, but that is ok...there is always a new day,...or week!!....and it is ending on a yummy note...
I did make my little book last weekend... I learned so much that will be helpful in making a bigger journal...
This was a test run and I did different things to it just to see what the result would be...It was made from scraps but I had fun making it...but it was what I gleaned from doing this that was more important to me...
AND my seedlings are going crazy... the soda bottle greenhouses are amazing...I have 8 of them so far...by the time I am done, my table will be covered!!! I am really happy with the results.....
My Basil.....which began sprouting two days after planting..
My sage started sprouting after 3 days!!! this usually takes a week or two to germinate so I was REALLY surprised to see the little seedlings working their way up through the soil....
sorry about the picture quality...it was hard to take without glare...
My sage....
Probably another reason they are doing well is using
Johnny's seed starting soil this year...My favorite gardening site in the world!!! But for anyone starting seeds, the bottle greenhouse is a great way to do it...
So the end of the week is ending on a better note...I went on a cooking spree today....I made homemade whole wheat bread, homemade chicken soup ( with our organic chickens) & Grammy's blueberry pie...
and Boston BBQ beans are slow cooking in the oven, cole slaw is slawing in the frig and Crock Pot Stuffed Cabbage will be slow cooking overnight...I love to slow cook...
So it looks like I am set for the week for meals...LOL
I am reading "
Women Who run with the Wolves"...I got the book this week......my hubby saw the title and gave me a sideways grin and said..."yeah, that is you"...so far it is fantastic ...
I am ready for the storm coming tonight...not sure if it will amount to much...but we will be cozy inside...
Have a fantastic weekend everyone!
