My instagram pic from last week We have only a coating of snow. Yes, I know. I should post more often. It is one of those winters that see-saw between normal temperatures and deep cold. I hate the deep cold. All our snow has … [Read more...] about Update, Philosophical Distractions, Life

Winding Up July

I didn't say "Hot enough for you?" once this month. Not that I am given to using that phrase, anyway, but the weather in Ohio could not have been more beautiful. We had "Polar vortex" in July. Normally I write off this month in terms of garden work. … [Read more...] about Winding Up July

Oh, hi there!

I was a garden blog pioneer, and began writing on this blog in 2003. Before that I had begun a garden website that has been at its own domain since 2006, Ilona's Garden.

I still love writing, gardening, and art after all these years, although travel and grandchildren have become a big part of my life, now.
