thrifty pumpkin sprout




Category: garden plans and adventures | Posted: Mon Aug 07, 2006 5:59 am

My computer is finally back up today, I had changed some rooms around and hadnt gotten it set back up. Went to IKEA *kicks self*. How dare they make things they know I need! actually need! I had to get a tv table and a shelf. They had 'em even cheaper and nicer than places I would think would have such items. Um, yes so my problem with that place is that when you have the barest of furnishings and I'm a confessed thrift store furniture junkie, you can find stuff that looks great and can go with your thrifty finds. Woot!

OK, this is supposed to be gardening. I planted pumpkins, and hot diggity if two seedings didnt pop up this morning. I thought the few fall things planted had baked or boiled in the soil and these managed to come up. I've been watering carefully, I guess something lived! I'm not sure which kind of pumpkin it is, I dried seeds from last years jack-o-lantern fun. It was a big one though.
I also planted some caladiums in the back yard last week. I've begun a bed along the back wall of my house. I used posts that were originally part of the pole barn I live in. I think it's a good recycle.
