2026 Goals
2025 is done and gone and to be honest I am not sad about it. I feel like last year was kind of a lost year for me. One where I just coasted through and didn’t get a lot accomplished. I looked back on past years goals and got a ton done in those years.Continue reading “2026 Goals”

I didn’t buy any seeds, just used what I had from past years. I couldn’t get into the mood. My gardening mojoContinue reading “End of Season Preserving”

Cakes and other Goodies I’ve Done Since March

I took 2 months off and started back again in May (other than the orders I already had booked) and of courseContinue reading “Cakes and other Goodies I’ve Done Since March”
