The first image is an example of my daily picks. I bring the flowers inside & collect the older vases of flowers from around the house. I remove the spent flowers & put them into a bowl for either the compost or to bury in the dirt near the flowering plant. The older flowers get…

why my heart aches for Vermont
I grew up in Montpelier & Burlington Vermont. I am living my life in Alabama. I married an Alabama man.

the husky with too much blush
Nala loves going to Saab Lake. On our first walk, she found…God only knows what, to rub her face into. Huskies really don’t like water much, usually. Nala LOVES it. She went swimming & fishing. She caught a stick that she thought was a fish.
wrapping up childhood
