December has arrived, officially opening the season of Christmas.
Our thoughts turn to family tradition and rituals surrounding
the holiday. We decorate, we bake, we party and shop and most
importantly we share time with our family enjoying those customs
that are passed down year to year. We celebrate the birth of Jesus
Christ and share that joy on December 25th. Peace and harmony
is the message of Christmas.
We can only be said to be alive when our
hearts are conscious of our treasures.
-Thornton Wilder
Garden friends with the season of winter fast approaching,
we have put our gardens to rest. Although we may continue
to clean up the leaves, plant growth has stopped, the garden
tools are put away, the pots cleaned out and the hoses are
drained. Some of us long for the chilly longer nights and
catching up on our indoor hobbies. While we may not be
able to sit out on the porch swing, we can still enjoy being
outside by walking and observing all that nature has to offer.
And, when you come in from that brisk chilly walk, you can
hunker down with hot chocolate and Christmas cookies!
Oh, don't forget to check out the new garden and seed
magazines.
Visit me on instagram there's a lot to see.
