Good morning, everyone! This year I venture into new territory: my first-ever Blogging from A to Z. Thanks to all the great folks over at the Insecure Writers Support Group for their guidance as I navigate these new waters.
Today’s the day we reveal our themes for the month! And mine is…drumroll, please…
Dishing the Dirt: My Gardening Life
After all, it’s springtime, so that means I’m outside. We live on a double lot that is almost entirely garden space. We dug up most of the grass a few years ago so I wouldn’t have to nag my husband to mow. Last week we installed a new front yard fence so I can continue working on my “food forest” concept without having the local deer munch everything to ruins before it can grow.
Gardening makes me more peaceful (no small feat) and reflective of the rest of my life. I’ve only gardened for five years now, so I still have a lot to learn, but the garden teaches me…and it’s fun!
The Blogging from A to Z Challenge begins Wednesday, April 1. You’re welcome to join us, too! It’s not too late.
All of these blogs will be participating in the Challenge, too! I’m still getting to know a lot of these blogs, but there’s some great material in this group, and I’m looking forward to reading what everyone has to say.
See you April 1!
I’m so excited for your gardening tips. The Chef and I are trying straw bale gardening for the first time this year. He’s done other gardening in the past. I helped my mom, who is a huge gardener, when I was younger.
Thanks for visiting my blog today, Play off the Page. Glad to meet you, and enjoy the challenge!
Thanks for visiting me back! I really like your blog and am looking forward to your AtoZ posts. Seems as though we have a few things in common.
Good luck with the AtoZ. I take my hat of the gardeners – I don’t have the patience 🙂

Thanks for visiting! Some days I don’t have the patience, either…and it shows in my yard. I’m a gardener, but not necessarily a good one!
See you on AtoZ!
I am looking forward to your gardening knowledge. I am more of a novice gardener than I am a novice writer of “flash”… but I hope to enjoy both when I retire… maybe with a great deal of help from your knowledge?

Hi, and welcome! I hope you find some good information in these posts. I’m fascinated by how the garden teaches me about life…and writing! They go together well.
