Guest Garden: Dr. MeowMix

My eternal lust for all things Dr. MeowMix will forever live on, spurred on by the delicious photographs of hers. Please go to her blog over there —–> here. I had to stop myself from wanting to post all of them.

P.S. I have a few other guest gardener’s who have shared their photos with me. I hope to get to them in the next week or so (now that my portfolio is almost DONE! Yay!). Meanwhile send me a link or pics of yours so we can all droll over garden fodder: shellgreenier_at_yahoo.com

Pic of the Day: Figs in the Atlanta Garden!

I know, one day I will need to cut the tags off of these guys, but I’m procrastinating until I find a new journal or book to throw them all in. Brown turkey fig…I’ve been waiting for one for ages. I have my eye on a pair of kiwis as well, but those will have to wait I suppose.

Guest Garden: Theresa

My friend Theresa from Sebastian, FL sent me a desperate cry for help over her droll-worthy garden of arugula. I told her the solution was to send me some (as I sit over my bowl of bagged arugula and spinach salad, I miss the zing of fresh grown. yawn.). OH. MY. GOD. How tasty does that look?

I need more photos. Steph, Laur, Amber...I know ya'll garden, send me some!!!

An Interesting Bed Fellow

I know a lot of you are coming for the Urban Homesteading and not as much the madness itself. I just want to take a moment to apologize. The plants are gone, the home is gone, the sunshine and water and bugs are gone. But I am working on rebuilding.

I’m moving. To Atlanta. There will be more plants, and flowers and trees. And this time there will be art and new Buggs (the puppy)…

…and alpacas, and food, and sadly even a little ana. Yes, I know. Take/Scene/Act 3,456, right? It gets old, I’ll be the first to admit it, but you can only take so much before no matter how strong your arsenal or how thick your walls: you fall. There are only so many times

This marks the 15 year birthday of my official title. I think I am hovering somewhere between ED-NOS and OCPD right now, but at one point in time I was a full fledged Anorexic and I am quickly on my way back. Congratulations, you’re 27 and you suck at eating. Does your mom still bathe you? Seriously? You pay rent and do all sorts of grown up things but you can’t run to the store and EAT A DAMN CHEESEBURGER? People pay you to do important things and you’re afraid of spaghetti? Yes, I know. But I’m working on it.
