Oh! I want a grotto too, also, too! Let's figure it out. You could just put a baby Jesus in there and call it even steven. I want a Buddha in mine. Or maybe something irreverent! Even steven better.

I am too old (tired) to do gardening but the thing I want the most of all is a grotto. My Baptist husband thinks of a statue of the Virgin Mary or whoever is the saint-of-the-month and is not too receptive. I assured him I just want a grotto and not for religious purposes. I just want one.

Glad to have found your fun blog. You are sure to have a wonderful crop of vegs in that raised bed. John's soil is the best. I think you may need a few more raised beds before long with all those seeds. Is the Eleanor you mention blogging at the Garden of E?
Delightful little pond. You work wonders with odds and ends.

Ha, yes, I understood. Thanks!

Oh shoot! I forgot to say the "plant thickly; thin vigorously" advice applies to CARROTS. I have no idea if it applies to other Fall veggies! So just try it with your carrots. That's what I'm going to try, too!

REALLY? Now that is something I've never heard, but I'll sure do it. I will. Thank you, thank you and THANK YOU. The pond was soooo easy. I thought it was gonna be hard and it was not.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who had sore muscles after sowing seeds! I couldn't resist those colorful carrots either.

Here's something I recently learned from a very experienced veggie gardener: plant thickly then thin vigorously. Apparently the seeds won't germinate unless they're crowded, but once they're seedlings they need at least three inches between them, so you must ruthlessly thin the seedlings.

Your raised bed is gorgeous! And one of these days, I'll get started on a little pond-fountain thing. Yours is very cool.
