A couple months ago, Alicia, Josie and I planted a little flower bed surrounded by a rock border. We scattered (Josie mostly plunked fistfuls) various seed packets on the plot…and waited. Nothing happened for a long time, so we figured birds had gotten the seeds. And then!

Also: wear an apron when you garden. I know I look like I’m slinging burgers, but I can carry around my tools and gloves, stash my phone and wipe my hands off. I love it.

That is my favorite shade of pink/purple.

Even Bryce loves it!
