More Video in 2015
The blog has a new look. In keeping with the changes of the internet,i.e. more mobile users, I attempt to create a more functional design.
You may notice the emphasis on including a video gallery. That is the direction I hope to go this year- always choosing the most challenging option possible, I guess.
The important thing for me is to not worry about how amateur I look in the process of the learning curve, but producing something useful and helpful to other gardeners.
Why would I want to make more videos? Probably because I like to learn in that way, and figure that this is true of many others. It is a variation on the “a picture is worth a thousand words” maxim.
While I genuinely love to write how-to and information based posts, perhaps writing is better for musings, inspirations, etc.
Right now, if there is a choice of watching a one minute example of pruning lavender, or reading an article that tries to implement visual aids of clumsy graphics and a few photos… I believe I would rather have the video.

I have been trying to clean things up also and need to check all my links Thanks for the reminder. In my life I have started getting things done way with so there is just not so much stuff. LOL! And in the garden that does not cause me to work all the time and dread that I am not keeping up. With Mom and getting older myself I need to eliminate some of the things in the garden so I can enjoy it more.
Winter finally arrived with 6 inches of snow here. I am glad for the snow this time because it will insulate my plants from this cold air.
That’s where I’ve been- and since we have similar weather patterns, am sharing your gladness for the snow. What ideas do you have for reducing the work? It seems so hard to do without this or that, but then the weeds get going and make the whole thing moot!
One thing I am doing more of is just plodding away at one section of the garden at a time. A more consistent work schedule, but that was last summer when the weather seemed pleasant every day. Wouldn’t do so well with the normal late July and August dog days.
thanks for your comment, Lona! I always enjoy hearing from you.
Ilona, I like the new look. Very clean. Happy New Year.
Thanks so much! So good for you to comment, I know you are a busy, busy lady.
