What did you do in the garden today?

[Sally PB]

Pattern plz

Yeah, I'd like the pattern for that too!

Anyone try Nasturtium to repeal squash bugs? Farmers almanac recommend them. I'm going to try some out, they are pretty none the less.

The flowers are tasty. Kind of peppery; I thought the red ones tasted a little cinnamony too.

eta I just noticed @WthrLadys beautiful scarf (tho that's so not what it's called) is in the background! I love that thing. Hanging on the chair drying after it kept me warm out in the snow.

Nice job on the cake!

NO pattern. I just make them. They're ultra warm because they are made with alpaca fleece.

@Fishychix @TJAnonymous I have forgotten every day this week to get a pic of one of my bags. I have a bunch in the back of my husbands vehicle but he’s at work atm. I did find this one in my trunk. I only cut off the collars if they’re not stretchy or look ugly from being old. Sometimes I use pinking shears and sometimes regular scissors and I don’t see much difference in performance.

I love the snow. You couldn't pay me to move south. It gets harder the older I get, but I'm a snow girl for sure. I hate hot, I'd take a blizzard over 90 degrees any day! I suppose thats why I live where I do. Lol

I’m right there with you. It can be a lot of work but it’s good exercise. It’s also good for the garden as snow adds a lot of nitrogen to the soil. It looks like we might only have a total of 6 or 7 inches. It’s still blowing everything around so it’s hard to measure. I have more trouble dealing with the heat in the summer. We still get 90F and above. Too much and much harder on the chickens.

I planted nasturtiums everywhere. Did not repel squash bugs. They are very pretty though....

Do you sell them on Etsy or anything? Asking for a friend....

 

[WthrLady]

I used to on etsy. But closed the shop. Now I just have them here. Should I see what colors I have down in the studio? Lol.
