Awaiting my "proof". Release date coming soon. The last book in my Zen Living Trilogy. I decided to go with the originally designed cover.
And currently working on a small book of poetry
that is a Journey of The Heart for me. On completion, this one will not be made available to the general public.
This one I am doing for myself.
A satisfying, creative day. Pulled together the front/spine/back cover art for "The Ashes" and the Dedication page with Photography.
Played in the plants a bit.
The Spring baskets and pots in full bloom now, and the smell of Hyacinths fills the air. The patio smells like a day at the Flower and Patio Show! Nice to get back to morning coffee and sunrises after the long cold winter.
And only
Definitely a trip to Metropolis together and maybe Cox's Nursery for a rose or two to pot together. Oh...and wine. And chocolate, of course. Can't WAIT!
This year's plantings include
A Couple of Heirloom Climbing Roses for the Arch.
Container Roses for the patio.
A small Goldfish, Tadpole and Water Lily "pond" in a half-barrel.
Several water plants in Apothecary Jars for indoors. Mini water lilies and the like.
Herb baskets including Basil, Oregano, Rosemary, Thyme, Lavender, Lemon Balm, Chamomile, Sage, Garlic Chives, Parsley, and a potted Bay Laurel.
A few Annuals. Something bright and colourful to attract both the butterflies and the hummingbirds.
And a couple of large "Air Plants"
Okay...and maybe a hanging Boston Fern.
It will be fun to be planting things together again!
