Grow It Eat It Blog
Do you like cottage gardens? I love them, and Pam’s English Cottage Garden located in the Poconos is just the blog that will delight us with her animals, and cottage flowers.
A side note: So many garden blogs are begun in earnest and then left. It is like a metaphor of many a garden plot. Not everyone is suited for the intense commitment of an occupation or obsession.
For many, the act of writing (or gardening for that matter) is more of a hobby and a brief pastime. There is nothing wrong with that… but what I find is that there are many who show such promise and talent that I wish they had the time and desire to pursue it further.
Everyone needs a break… but if you take one, consider going back to pick up the trowel, or pen and camera occasionally – just to keep your hand in it.
The world is much richer for that.
