Not much space to let myself go, but I arranged a really cozy nook there: a jute rug, lots of cushions, fav books, blooming pelargoniums and some of our tropical plants. It's sad the weather has gotten cold lately, so a relaxe zone has been shifted indoors.<br />But we're working on having our own house with a garden in the nearest future possible... a huge garden, I dream! :)Zara H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15128847742081359028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6647852722354804887.post-46130720352781272322013-09-28T07:46:58.950-07:002013-09-28T07:46:58.950-07:00Thank you for your encouraging words, Manzanita.

I so enjoyed as a youngster taking the bus from out in the countryside where we lived and going up to the Independence Square. Across the street was the movie theater that showed cowboy movies ever Saturday as a matinee. So I saw nearly all the Gene Autry and the Roy Roger/Dale Evans films. Good times!

Reminds me, I have to get a couple bales of straw to cover the roses and some of the herbs. Sometimes it saves them and in a real harsh winter, it won't. Is it too warm (where you live) to put in tulips to come up in spring? I just think of all California as being warm winters. But I know you have mountains and snow in parts. <br />I think you are having a lot of enjoyment tending the mama's garden lately.

I will check out the URL. <br />I do hope I don't forget to plant the tulips. Sometimes, the ground freezes before I get them planted. I hope not. I just have some tulips and daffodils. Then I have to remember to dig up the irises. Plant one and dig another one up. No wonder we love gardening, huh? <br />You are landless??? We'll just have to try to find you a small piece of land so you can plant your beloved flowers and vegetables.
