We've been trying to fix up our postage stamp-sized yard lately, so we swept away all the cobwebs, cleared some of the viney, weedy growth, hacked up a fallen bush, and planted some things in containers. I've got Sugar Snack cherry tomatoes, lemon cucumbers, basil, cilantro, and some bits of forget-me-nots and morning glories that we grew from seed ($1 bins at Target). Oh, and something that is supposed to eventually have red flowers, forgot what it was called. No flowers on anything but the veggies, yet, but Rebecca's really enjoyed seeing everything grow, and it's been nice extending our living space, no matter how small the yard is. And I use that term, "yard," loosely. Very loosely.
And here's the glam gardener, standing with Meow Meow in front of the lemon cucumbers, modelling the beautiful dress Stacy made for her (go ahead, check her out, she has a store, too). The dress ties behind the neck, halter style, and makes me wish I had one in my size! Becca would wear it every day, if I'd let her. Shameful, that it took me this long to post a picture, but, rest assured, it was loved the moment it arrived.
Can't wait for the first ripe fruit. Will it be Becca or the bugs that get to taste it first?
Aww...she looks darling. :)
I hope that she gets to take the first taste of your garden goodies and not the bugs!
