Frugal Local Kitchen

Instead of going out to dinner, buy good food. Cooking at home shows such affection. In a bad economy, it's more important to make yourself feel good.

So, we spent about an hour this past weekend finally planting all the plants we picked up at Glick’s Greenhouse over a week before. Two of the neighborhood girls showed up and helped my daughter plant her bed. Actually, who are we kidding? They did the planting while she told them what to do. That’s my daughter!

As I labeled the photos with plant names, I realized that the beds are so revealing of my kids’ personalities. My 9 year old who loves to cook thought about vegetables and herbs for his cooking. The 7 year old who’s very fond of tulips and flowers included them in his bed. My daughter got some one else to plant her flowers for her. And, the 5 year old very carefully planted his beans onions, and left Mom to help him with the rest. He did come back and water everything.
