My schedule has been weird lately. Between overtime and poor planning, I haven't had more than one day off in a row for a while (the exception was last weekend when we went to Omaha). This means I'm not getting a whole lot done around here. I usually use my first day off to relax and recover, and the second day to get stuff done.
Anyway, I worked this Saturday, but Ross and I both had Sunday off and we had a great "weekend!"

Domination. (Please excuse the chocolate in my teeth). |
I was mighty excited about my birthday cake, but I'm also excited about all the seedlings we bought at
Family Tree Nursery: lettuce, serrano peppers, strawberries, a dwarf tomato plant, basil, and some flowers. Sadly, something (I'm guessing a bird?) has already eaten the leaves and flowers off of two strawberry plants and the pepper plants! And I thought we were safer from pests being on a third floor balcony...
Ill bet it is the squirrels rather than the birds.
ReplyDeleteMay I suggest putting in a pinwheel or two?
May be something that rattles in the wind or when bumped?
Your plants look awesome!
Love you, Mom
