I am grateful for all the gardens that are a part of my gardening journey. This is an experimental garden I had in California back in 2018, where half of the garden was planted in-ground and half of the garden was a container garden. My daughter had begged me for years to have her own…

Welcome to the Weekend Coffee Share! Can I get you a cup of coffee? Or tea? I learned something new about coffee this week. I learned that if you travel first class on the train you have access to this little station seen in the photo above, where one can get free coffee, tea, hot…
