Hello my Sisters,
Angie, your smoothie sounds yummy. I think that would make a fun dessert.
Anita, I'm excited to see the trellises and your vertical planting. I recently saw someone make a really pretty privacy screen that they attached to their fence. The privacy screen was covered in flower boxes containing annuals as well as vegetables. I'd love to do that.
I am very eager for garden season as well. I'm curious about whether any of my recently planted berry bushes have survived the winter and my crazy puppy. I'm currently "garden lusting" after a kind of kiwi plant/shrub that will grow in my zone. The plant produces 1-2" large kiwi-type fruits that have smooth skin and can be popped into your mouth like grapes. I've seen similar plants on vines that require several male and female plants, but appararently this beauty is self polinating and can tolerate full and part sun. I'm hoping that the Mother's Day fairy will bestow this garden fruit upon me.:)
Ben and I have a health goal to attempt to reduce stress....It's not going well so far...Ha! We are trying to give each other a free day once a week, but in the past two weeks I haven't managed to get mine yet...hmmm. So, I'm attempting to do something small every day that I enjoy. I'll keep you posted on my efforts.
