One of my dogs started digging last fall, and I ended up laying those little decorative fence sections on the ground. you know the kind of section I mean? They're usually 5'-8' long, 3' tall, and pretty cheap. They don't kill whatever they're laying on and the dog doesn't like to run her paws over it. I found out something else other than my dog was digging up next to the house, and the dog was trying to get whatever the other critter was.
Our weather was drizzly and cloudy all day, but we're supposed to be in the 80's this week. I went ahead and pruned the roses since they were leafing out. Our last avg freeze date is April 19, but with temps in 80's, there's no slowing them down.
Anyone else cook their corned beef and cabbage today? Our stores have fresh rhubarb in stock and strawberries are super cheap this year, so I'm making strawberry rhubarb pies and brown betties.
I bought 18 strawberry plants but I figure the bunnies will get most of them so I had better freeze some of the store strawberries while they're cheap. Florida had such great weather this winter that prices fell.
This year I'm planting my most extensive vegetable garden ever. Hope the weather cooperates!
And I'm ready for my Palatine and Austin orders. I just hope they don't come the same week that my conservation order comes, since it has 175 shrubs. That would be too much of a good thing, I think. Whistling
Remember that children, marriages, and flower gardens reflect the kind of care they get.
