Same here! The snow collected in big drifts blocking our driveway and front door! We did get to build an enormous snowman tho!

We barely got a sprinkle! There was quite a bit of wind though! Nothing to be envious of! 🙂

Speaking of leaves blowing, years ago we lived in a cul-de-sac at the very center of the curve. Every fall, all of our neighbor's leaves piled up deep in our driveway and front lawn! It was so much work bagging up everyone's leaves along with our own!! Oh, the joys of suburbia!

I always grow only organic veggies. I love many of the "weeds" out there! They can be more delicious than the stuff you buy at your typical grocery store!

Every day should be a happy national coffee day!

I always grow mint, basil, oregano, thyme, rosemary, dill, and chives. I have occasionally grown cilantro, but it definitely prefers a warmer and drier climate than we have in the PNW.

Yummy! That looks so colorful and tasty!

Great knat trap idea! They also love wine! Put out a bit in a glass and the knats will gather!

This reminds me of a brilliant red mum I bought once. It was so full of blooms for many months. Then winter came and all the flowers withered and it dried up into some brown stems. I thought it was dead. Well, I left it in its pot until spring came along. Around March I saw some little...

I like you idea about the dandelion bitters variation! I bet it would be very good!

I love zucchini too! I especially like to cut it julienne style and add it fresh to my hummis wrap along with other scrumptious veggies!

That's awesome that you are having such a great cuke harvest! Have you tried dipping them in high quality blue cheese dressing? Once you try this, you will be a slave to growing cucumbers!
