Okay, I’m a week late. I really fell off the wagon in April and had to scramble to make about 25 squares. Oops. 29 April squares and four May squares Then once I had them made, I sat on them for a few more days before I finally pieced them together. Hmm. It’s not like [...]

Saturday Garden Update – May 8, 2021

Flood and Fire
Our little corner of Texas is prone to all the things. Flood? We have that, twice a year, Spring and Fall. Fire? We get that, too, although not nearly to the extent other areas of the country do. There was a big fire here the Summer before we moved down, so I can see the [...]
