We're growing things




Along with the sungold tomatoes, hot cherry peppers, sweet banana peppers, cayenne peppers, dwarf dill, thyme, and basil we're attempting to grow on the landing, this weekend we bought some purdy flowers to brighten things up. Now I like looking out the back door.

    Your garden looks so sweet...but when I first looked at your post I thought that you were talking about "things" growing in your fridge...but then I realized that it was a window...made me look twice! Ha ha

    Hey, we just got back from our Smokey Mt. vacation! Thanks for the info about cabin rentals, we stayed in "Moose Tracks." Great location! Isn't blogging an amazing resource? Thanks again.

    Hello! I share your love of the color orange and also of growing things. Here in Florida, my basil plant is turning into a shrub! Wish I could say the same for my tomato plants...
    Glad to have discovered your blog!

    I've just started a little herb garden, but it seems like your basil is doing better than mine! Good work.

    I love your style and would love to see how you have decorated other areas of your home. It looks so charming from the snippets I have seen.

    I really enjoy your creative "bar" above the door! And great color on the walls. My dining room is similar. the paint color was "swampwater". I love it!

    can I ask you how you have all those photos on your refrigerator set up. Is it a frame that you are using or something else ??

    Hi :) I recently found you through a friend who sent me some cute button thumbtacks she made from your tutorial. I am so excited to have your entire blog to wander through. :)

    Your garden is simply beautiful--such bright and cheery colors!

    I bet dinner must be good with all the fresh things you grow.

    Beautiful, I'm jealous of your green thumb! Every time *we* go to buy plants we say to each other, "but do they really deserve to die?" ...because that's what happens to every plant in our custody :(
