a journal about my garden and my life: thoughts on the chaos, the glory, the surprises, the disasters, and the joys of life and my garden

"I thank You God for most this amazing day: for the leaping greenly spirits of trees and a blue true dream of sky; and for everything which is natural which is infinite which is yes"
--e.e. cummings
I am a writer, artist, gardener and wounded healer with a special interest in the natural world, the re-enchantment of design, and healthy, fabulous food. My home is my garden and workshop, and I use my travels as inspiration. I enjoy stepping off the beaten path to discover the unexpected and to re-connect with the awesome power of Nature to rejuvenate my soul.

You may laugh, but here in zone 8B, I'll be making similar decisions on what I stuff inside my house, before I let others go. In Austin our winter doesn't get as cold as yours, but we still go below freezing - that line of demarcation for so many favorite plants. The grasses look beautiful in the snow-pots.
Kati, I hope you're doing okay - the superman photos were adorable. Unlike superman, we're not able save everything and every one - but we'd like to, wouldn't we?

Annie, thanks for caring: I'm fine. I have friends who have been very good to me since Molly died. I just loved the magical quality of my friend D.'s story, though!
As for the grasses, etc., I'm still dithering...I may bring them in yet and just find another spot indoors ;)
just looking at your snow is making me shiver, I'm looking out my unfinished cross stitch projects for dark cold winter nights. I get really sad when the grdening season stops. where's that seed catalougue!!
maybe that is what winter is for, a time to rethink and revise ideas and of course, to get new ideas from the catalogues. I used to rely on daydreaming over catalogues as my only means of gardening vicariously at one point in my life, when i didn't have a garden. thank god for the catalogues.
Winter was short here...
Wow, you got a lot of snow, Kati! We have had a few small snowfalls, but it all melts a couple of hours later. I got my garlic planted on Sunday. I was thrilled to get that done before the snow REALLY came.
good for you, Randa. I have to confess, even though we had a couple of lovely sunny days there, I still have not planted my garlic, sigh! Our snow didn't last very long either, a couple of days. It's raining now.
