Quote of the Day  “The thing about life is that you must survive. Life is going to be difficult, and dreadful things will happen. What you do is move along, get on with it, and be tough. Not in the sense of being mean to others, but being tough with yourself and making a deadly effort not to be defeated.” ~Katharine Hepburn

Confession time. I haven’t left the house since last Saturday and I am starting to get a little loopy. Well, technically I have left the house, but that’s only to walk Lucy and collect sticks. I haven’t been in a car or outside of the hood since last Saturday and you know what? I kind of like it. Because really, what do I need?

Well, it’s not so much a need but rather a want. I’ve been craving those Russell Stover Pectin Jelly Beans for about a week now and no matter how many times I drop hints that Bartell’s sells them, not one of my people has brought them home for me. Maybe they’re trying to tell me it’s time to leave the house? Or that I don’t need candy. Whateva.

Candy is life. And I think we all know that. 😉

Also, I just want to put it out there that there are only 55 days left until The Crown Season 2 is available on Netflix. I am going to make all my party food {finger sandwiches, mini pastries etc}, the night before and then get up the next morning, shower, write the blog and then start the binge watching party at 8 am.

Not that I’ve thought about it in great detail or anything.

Also, because this little hello isn’t long enough already, I’ve decided that I am really going to TRY HARD about having a good attitude this fall/winter. Even if it does rain every single day.

Goals. We all need some. Don’t you think?

Peace Out Girl Scouts, have a good weekend. And make it count.

Gardening books hold kind of a special place in my heart. I wouldn’t be the gardener I am today {or maybe not a gardener at all} if it weren’t for a few gardening books I picked up years ago. I spent almost the entire winter of 2008/2009 reading up on gardening. I found some incredible reads that taught me so much and made me realize how much I didn’t know. So I’ve never stopped reading gardening books.

Here are just a few of my favorites, although if we’re being honest, narrowing this list down was virtually impossible. Gardening books are right up there with the bible {okay, not quite, but you get the idea!}.

My Favorite Garden Books:

• Carrots Love Tomatoes: Secrets of Companion Planting
• The Complete Compost Gardening Guide
• Mini Farming: Self-Sufficiency on 1/4 Acre
• Sugar Snaps and Strawberries 
• The Gardener’s A-Z Guide to Growing Organic Food
• The Kitchen Gardener’s Handbook
