Gardening Ideas

Does it happen to you too? That you get an idea in your head and until you execute it, you feel incomplete? I live by that credo! And for the last many weeks, have been meaning to visit this interesting sounding place called Sunshine's Garden Boutique, close to home.

And today, finally I did! Yippee! Came away from there with not one dent in my wallet. Cos if had to buy something, that dent would've been almost a crater! Talk of being expensive! Whew!

But I did come away with lots and lots of ideas. And am now itching to get going on crafts with the kids which I can use in my balcony garden patch. Will definitely keep you updated on how this stream of ideas flows...

Here is the link to Sunshine's Garden Boutique, if you want to take a virtual tour. Enjoy!

My Little Garden

This blogging is getting to be mighty addictive, I tell you. And so here I am again. To share my little gardening experience with you.

I've never been a great gardener, by any stretch of imagination. But always liked to have a few plants around the house, which would prosper for a few weeks, then die. This time, however, the gardening effort has continued for some time and I haven't killed too many poor plants. So here is a glimpse of my little balcony garden. Will keep you updated of changes.
