STAY THE FUCK HOME!

 This is what you can do with a bag of frozen wild blueberries from Trader Joe's, sugar, cornstarch and some pie crust mix... on a VERY QUIET weekend.

 Oh, and did I mention the Tillamook French Vanilla ice cream? Takes the sting out of not being able to go to the Grange and buy plants!   SORT OF!

It feels like someone stuck their foot out and stopped my world from spinning...but the daffs do remind me that NATURE DOESN'T CARE ABOUT HUMAN PROBLEMS...it just keeps on keeping on and blooming away!  

TUTEUR OR NOT TO TEUR...

This free-standing trellis with a mushroom shaped top is called a TUTEUR. When we had our new fence built, we gained about 2' of additional space so the Campsis radicans (Yellow Trumpet Creeper) that had been growing on the fence was now 2' away from it. What to do? I spied this trellis in the Gardener's Supply catalog and figured it would let me keep the Trumpet Creeper and perhaps a morning glory or two. 

It's very naked right now in March, but we hope for lots of blooms this summer that attract pollinators to the garden.

DRAGONFLY ADDITION TO THE GARDEN CORNER

My daughter in law Susan found this great dragon fly at the MADE IN CHICO store. It really compliments my "garden corner" of the dining area. We secured it with an anchor bolt.
