A tiny lil' backyard in zone 5/6, Southside St. Louis. Wednesday, February 24, 2010. Spring, where are you? We're getting new outside doors tomorrow! I am beyond excited and thought about it all day long at work. Exciting life, eh? Lovely seed packets from 1965. My mother was 19 years old. Free Fritos! It's always hard to believe that it all begins like this:. And ends up like this 7 months later. Thursday, February 11, 2010. Here are some warm photos for you to contemplate:. Check out those tritoma!

A tiny lil' backyard in zone 5/6, Southside St. Louis. Friday, July 24, 2009. First tomato of the year and new favorite shirt. I feel 20 years old again, with a powerful-statement-shirt. Believe it or not, this was taken on the first shot. Skillz. More green beans than I thought:. I've been sewing for this show for the past two weeks. Won't you come shop? I will have some of my mother's crocheted bags made from plastic shopping bags, too. Friday, July 03, 2009. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The Neverending...

Squaresville: Digging In The Dirt, 2010
http://squaresvilleusa.blogspot.com/2010/03/digging-in-dirt-2010.html
A tiny lil' backyard in zone 5/6, Southside St. Louis. Wednesday, March 17, 2010. Digging In The Dirt, 2010. FINALLY I was able to get the garden started! I am on spring break this week, and after a day of self-imposed sloth-ery, I worked outside all day yesterday. Here's what I found in the compost bin:. Wee little mice. There must have been about 20 of them, fleeing like it was the Titanic! Glad I'm not scared of them. It amazes me how they live all winter. Why don't they freeze? Last year, we had snow...

Squaresville: Birdz
http://squaresvilleusa.blogspot.com/2010/03/birdz.html
A tiny lil' backyard in zone 5/6, Southside St. Louis. Thursday, March 18, 2010. There are two pairs of cardinals that hang out in my yard. Here, one of them sits atop the bird feeder pole. While his lady friend and a robin wait for him to eat. The downy woodpecker is pretty brave and doesn't give a rat's ass about who is king of the feeder. I think there might be two of them also. I cut some forsythia and brought it inside to bloom. My only regret is that I won't be here this weekend to see it open!

Squaresville: Self-Pitying Post! Be Warned!
http://squaresvilleusa.blogspot.com/2010/03/self-pitying-post-be-warned.html
A tiny lil' backyard in zone 5/6, Southside St. Louis. Saturday, March 27, 2010. Today sucked. I had thought my good mood returned yesterday, and things today were going well until I went grocery shopping. 1 My grocery bill was less than 50 cents OVER the balance in our account. I was so embarrassed: I've never been that person who has to put stuff back. Did I put back the Take 5 bars. The dog food can wait a few days! Why should I suffer a lack of chocolate when. 1 My friend Kelly came over and I sent h...

Squaresville: June 2009
http://squaresvilleusa.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
A tiny lil' backyard in zone 5/6, Southside St. Louis. Monday, June 29, 2009. I found this fabric in a hunt for yellows. I made a pair of Jams out of it in 1986 or 1987. I am slightly embarrassed .A. because I wore shorts out of this fabric and B. because I've had the hideous scraps for 22 years. But, it works perfectly with the tropical blue, red and yellow placemats I cut out. Monarda and daisies from my garden make a nice bouquet in the bathroom. Tuesday, June 23, 2009. Don't Mess With My Kids! Sure, ...

Squaresville: May 2010
http://squaresvilleusa.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
A tiny lil' backyard in zone 5/6, Southside St. Louis. Sunday, May 23, 2010. So, in the past week, it's gone from Pacific Northwest cold/rainy to St. Louis late July. It is so disgustingly hot and humid today, and just a few days ago I was adding an extra blanket to the bed. Naturally, this has made Rabbitt Gardens explode with goodness. 1 The first peas are allllmost ripe. I keep messing with them each day in a Hansel and Gretel way to see if they're fat enough. This pic is a few weeks old.will add ...

HyperCraftive: It's getting colder
http://hypercraftive.blogspot.com/2008/10/its-getting-colder.html
Friday, October 3, 2008. Hyperactive and fickle) get that scarf project down to something a bit sleeker and less time consuming. I know I didn't invent anything special, but it's still nice knowing that I came up with the idea on my own. Here it is, the curly-q scarflette. I never actually write down any of my patterns, but I'm trying to get better. This one was really simple despite it's lovely little curls. Don't expect this to become a regular occurrence. But here's my attempt at a pattern:. April 8, ...
