I went to the Flower and Garden Show with friend Marylin, hoping for inspiration. No shortage of that! It began with a seminar/demonstration by Martin Yan, followed by free samples that counted for lunch. That guy is an entertainer! One of these days I may take up cooking again, as opposed to frozen food in the microwave. He does make it look both fun and easy, although the sharpness of a knife like his does make me fear for my fingers.
The show gardens were fascinating, although not so spectacular as in years past. I liked the ones that showed using recycled stuff to make garden displays. I'm waiting for a landscape design called Gardening with Weeds since that's what grows best in my backyard. This year I did manage to resist buying a lot of bulbs, etc. that I know I won't get around to planting. I did buy Snail Jails, pot hangers, and some teeny-weeny succulents for my dollhouse garden. And a sundress -- first preparation for next trip to Hawaii.
