In case I haven’t mentioned it yet- here’s one thing that you should definitely know about me. Christmas is my favorite holiday. Ever. And it goes just beyond the actual day. There’s so much that I love about this time of the year. And yes, I am one of those people who would start decorating as soon as possible. To be honest, if I could have one room in the house dedicated to Christmas? I’d do it. This year, however, when I wanted to start decorating; I also wanted to consider the overall Winter season. Squeaker loves snowmen. Kyle, Squeaker, and I are all Winter babies (January, December, February respectively). So it only made sense to try and incorporate Winter alongside Christmas. With thanks to…

With the weather really warming up lately and signs of early spring coming around, the urge to get out and get the yard ready for a garden is strong. We will be planning a vegetable garden this year and possibly a butterfly garden with Squeaker. I’m unsure if we’ll go the organic gardening route or not but we’ll at least try to go as organically as possible. One of my favorite things about spring and summer is being able to go to the local Farmer’s market to buy fresh vegetables. But are there really any major health benefits of eating organic food? For that matter, are there any health benefits of organic gardening? What are the Health Benefits of Gardening Today, a majority of Americans…

When it comes to planning our garden this year, aside from growing vegetables and maybe herbs; I might attempt to do a butterfly garden with Squeaker.

I do think that there are merits and benefits of going organic and one way that we might try to shift is through organic gardening. Take a look at this beginner’s guide to organic gardening to see where you…

In the Spring of 2015, we ventured into the world of home gardening. We had wanted to start a vegetable garden in the backyard and possibly branch into other plants or create a butterfly garden. I have many fond memories of growing vegetables with my mom and hope to share this experience with Squeaker and Sweet B as well. Unfortunately, we didn’t prepare enough so we were unable to grow much of anything. That and our backyard still needed some work done. While we ended up going with a container garden last year, this year we’ll probably do a mixture of raised bed gardening and container gardening. I want to share with you, some of the steps that we took and places that we looked…
