Yesterday I took some {more} time to go through my upstairs craft space and to ask myself some serious questions. Questions like… When was the last time I picked this up? When did I buy this with the intention of reading/hooking/making it? And realistically, when do I see myself carving out the time to actually Read More >>

Yesterday I cleaned up the front garden. It took me all of 42 seconds. What a strange feeling that was. What do people do in the spring when they don’t have a giant garden to tend to? I didn’t need a wheelbarrow, or even a bucket. I held all the dried leaves and spent flowers Read More >>

Even though we have a teeny tiny garden here at the Lobster House, I’ll be going all out this year with not only planting perennial vegetables, but perennial flowers too.
