Fall is on the way!

Sage: one of the only survivors
Fall is by far my favorite season. I'm so excited to see the leaves changing color, feel the air getting cooler. Fall is also my opportunity for a second chance with my garden.

Let's Get Gardening!

The weather this weekend has been gorgeous and I have officially started gardening! I'm super excited if you couldn't tell, haha!
This is my first ever attempt at both solo gardening and container gardening. Last year, as part of an internship, I worked in a kitchen garden at Old Sturbridge Village and learned a TON about gardening! Seriously, if you are interested in agriculture & American history and are a college student look into applying for their intern program. It was a fantastic and education experience! but I digress... This year I will be on my own with my books and whatever advise you (my lovely readers) choose to grace me with. 
After a fabulous afternoon at the park, the Mr. & I scooted over to Walmart for some supplies and I spent the last few hours of daylight planting a few things on my porch (hopefully not too early but I have plenty of seed left if all else fails).

More Goodwill Finds

I love Goodwill!
Here are some of my new finds.

Painting

That's right, we've been painting! Well I've been painting. The Mr. Helped out with the tape where I couldn't reach.
I get very excited to do projects on the weekends and forget that he needs a break sometimes. Last week he was especially busy so I'm very grateful he helped me today. There are times I ask for help just for the sake of doing something together, and times when I just want to avoid a task (I hate washing dishes!). But this was one project I really could not have done with out my favorite fella's help because I am just too short. I hope that sugar cookies were a good "thank you!"
