DO YOU GARDEN? I am researching a book called "My Very First Garden" (about edible gardening... fruits, vegetables, herbs, etc.) and need your true stories! Do you have a good (or even bad!) memory about the first garden you ever did? Was it inside in pots, outside when you were a kid, or in a community garden? Did you harvest anything or did the rabbits get it all? Please submit your short but true story to vikkibooks at yahoo dot com by April 27 2010. Your submission implies your consent to use your story and the possibility of (minor) editing. Thanks!

Lights Out

We participated in the Earth Hour / Lights Out thing on Saturday, March 28.

The dogs got prepped for bed early. Tween got ready too, and I last-minute finished a blog entry by 8:28 p.m. Hubby turned off the light just as I powered down the computer. I lit a candle to take my blood pressure medication, then the three of us piled into our kind size bed.

We spent the hour telling stories, talking about life, and enjoying the darkness (even tho Tween is still somewhat afraid of the dark). We didn't have even one argument, which, if you knew our family, you'd know is unusual.




Perhaps next year, we'll have a little party and tell stories then too. Sounds good.
