Barbara Wise of bwisegardening has tagged me for a (second) prestigious Honest Scrap award! For those of you that read my first Honest Scrap just a few weeks ago, I understand if you pass on reading this one… for those (obviously very kind) people who want to know a bit more here are ten *NEW* things you won’t know about me from reading my blog:
- My favorite color is green. If you ask me what color to paint anything I will always answer green.
- When I was four I chopped up and fed a shriveled earthworm to my younger brother. (I told him it was raisins.) He’s forgiven me.
- I’ve only seen the ocean once. I was completely awestruck.
- I know American sign language.
- Butterflies are delicate, beautiful creatures and very welcome guests in my garden. However, when they land on me I scream like a banshee. I think it’s the antennae…
- I was once stampeded by a herd of small goats at a Canadian theme park.
- When I was seven I almost drowned in a family friend’s swimming pool. I had a “bubble” on but it slipped off. I still vividly recall seeing the sunlight at the water’s surface and not being able to reach it. The family’s teen son pulled me out.
- Elvis Presley. How Great Thou Art. Goosebumps.
- I like to collect beach glass with our youngest daughter. We don’t use it for anything, we just collect pieces of it.
- Someday I WILL host an Austen garden party and all of my favorite garden friends will attend. In frocks. And hats.
That’s it ! Now my job is to appoint seven more bloggers for the Honest Scrap award. It may take me a while to find seven more bloggers to do this, but I look forward to it! (Bloggers to be announced…)



















Pick me! Pick me!!!
There is no one quite as delightful as Get in the Garden!
I love to find art in the garden. Those pumpkins and gourds are just amazing!
Happy weekend!
My hat’s off to you! I can’t even believe you did this twice. I like beach glass, too. And Cape May diamonds.
I fell in love with heirloom squash Galeux d’Eyesine, the color was so pretty and it’s delicious!! My garden would never be complete without it.
Thanks Carole! Unlike some things, it wasn’t easier the second time, LOL!
