This, That, With A Side of Pens!
Mon Jan 22 2018

  So I've mailed off my seed orders. Is it Spring yet? (Don't be ridiculous.) Why not? It's fun! I have a marvelous thing in my kitchen, even if it IS January. Remember this? DSC04234 Sweet potato. That was taken on was December 11. This was taken a few minutes ago... DSC04317 Oh yeah! Did you know that sweet potatoes are in the morning glory family? Well, now you do! I have NO idea what I'm going to do with it as time goes on. I imagine it will start to drape over the edges under its own weight at some point. But it sure is a cheerful sight here in the bleak. I painted a little bird yesterday that I saw on Pinterest. I'm very happy with the result. . . DSC04312 (What is is with you and birds?) I don't know! I just ordered myself a little present. You know why? Because my - 'year of not buying any more pens because I have a freak load of them already' is OVER! 91o8adi1hKL._SL1500_ An obsessive/compulsive writer's dream. I can hardly wait to try them.   lime-wild

    WOW!!! Have you been feeding that plant steroids?!! Cute little birdie!! You are so talented. That year went by fast! You can always call it a birthday present to yourself. :)

    Hmm, why do I have a sudden compulsion to go out and buy pens in a rainbow of colours... they look so nice! Your sweet potato plant has really taken off! My little cucumber plants are still struggling along in their pots - they haven't grown much bigger, but they keep producing flowers, and one former flower has turned into a tiny cucumber! Ok, so it's only about a cm long at the moment, so is a very long way from being anything edible, but I am watching it closely to see if it grows.
