Now that I\'ve living alone, I\'m finding the comfort of friends like YOU to be SO IMPORTANT!!! I love sharing the gardening season with you and we always can bounce our gardening ideas off of each other which is so helpful!!!

Your plants are looking FANTASTIC!!! Of course, you\'re reminded me of my love for lilly of the valley which I used to have up north... I\'ll have to get some this season!!!

Long long day for me, but it was SO SUCCESSFUL!!! I have a beautiful flat of flowers to plant which I will do tomorrow... I also picked up some pepper plants as many of mine did not germinate... I should be ALL SET now once I get the garden beds ready which will be SOON!!!

Hi Chris, Always love when Spring rolls around and you share your garden adventures and pictures with us all. Today I had a few minutes to
put rubber-bands on some of the greens after the daffodils are spent.

My daughter is arriving on Friday for the memorial service.
We all will be very busy.

My car is acting up and We had to get a rental. I just don\'t feel confident
taking my car out.

Wishing you a Happy Thursday and Baking Friday.

I am GLAD YOU ARE IN MY LIFE.
