I’m in this serious nesting phase right now where I want to make aspects of my house feel more like a cohesive design. After over a year of living here, I finally bought window treatments. Then of course the corona virus hit, and the window treatments could not be installed… but that is still progress…
Ever since the beginning, I’ve wanted to added a little something extra to the upstairs hall bathroom. It always just felt like it needed something. I had originally planned to do some trim to the bathroom during the original installation but… you know… money. So naturally, it felt like the perfect project to take on in…
Such a weird year that I did not do a single garden update post…. or even an intro post. fighting off the rabbits Right amount of tomatoes Herbs did really well Beans feel a little bit like a waste since I only ever get one crop in – but I do love them. Skip the…
I’m not sure if peony season came on schedule this year or not, but it did show up and that is frankly all that matters. My peony plants on the South side of the house had such a strong showing in their second year. Very proud of those babes. The only downside is they get…

I’ve got about 15 tabs open in my browser and they are all different tomato varieties. The tomatoes were pretty solid this year. Solid…

I am not sure why, but I have simply not been compelled to write a garden update this year. It’s real lunacy given how much I depend on them when I’m garden planning each winter. Honestly, I think I’ve been waiting for some real bad weather or frankly a reason to sit in front of…
