so today it is peas and carrots

in the garden that is......i will be planting peas and carrots, and hoping that they both do better then last year.
it's to rain today, it DID rain overnight again.
so planting stuff that should have gone in last week is probably wise.
i have a lot of spinach out on the deck and a few baby lettuces, etc started as well. i put mache out there too and i can't wait for salads......
i love my overloaded garbage supper salads........we eat them almost daily during early summer/green season

now last night i made more stitch markers......... i love making them, they are a lot of fun.
i have a few more beads waiting for a few more markers....
but one set of beads absolutely needs pink beads which i do not have!
and another set of beads wants something in crystal which i also do not have!
(i should have bought the pink hearts i saw huh?)

now yesterday i did get the spray paint for the chandelier.......so naturally it rained with high winds.
oye
bernie and i discussed moving around the stuff in the studio again......but this time painting the furniture.... a darkish cream! with rubbed white over it....then waxed....yes i am contemplating painting ethan allen furniture......... vintage ethan allen!
actually i am thinking so hard about painting it, that i am thinking i may want to get a spray paint gun.....
and rig a spray booth under the deck
of course after that i would most likely spray paint every single peice of furniture in the house with the exception of the queen anne legged bonnet top secretary.....other then that......EVERYTHING would be fair game......
really the only thing stopping me right now is space to do it in that won't allow the animals to suffer
(i am really wanting to spray everything CREAM.......EVERYTHING-now i can understand when dad painted over half a spider and his comment to me was 'he didn't move fast enough')

i am also thinking........ if we do eventually put an addition on.......i want a conservatory...... or a three season room........MORE LIGHT
more and more light!!!!!
this winter was pretty hard i think on all of us

now i am going to make this post short as i have three pairs of eyes staring at me.................
they are piled up in the window where i feed thaddeaus.........
so it's fancy feast time
and olive oil
oye
hot fancy feast.....or they won't eat it!!!!!!!!
CATS!
they are as bad as ducks and chickens

  1. My peas are coming up, but it rained again today. Not as much tomorrow, but again Wed. And 10 degrees below normal. Can't tell if my carrots I planted way too early will come up or not. They have had snow sitting on them for about a month.
