I hit the jackpot finding 50 pounds of ground limestone to use around the garden, instead of salt, as ice traction, and near the front lawn, and the side of the house. The ambient warmth of the house will melt the snow/ice.
Horticultural sand is a great alternative to ice melt, around gardens, and I can't wait to get my hands on it! It's actually the same price as the salt I use, too.
I was looking at the basil vases outside, and I could dump them tomorrow.
The iris looks awful, and I wonder if I could prop it up. Wish I knew what would like nice to look out during the winter, but I guess it all gets buried anyway.
I cleaned the garden during a warmer day, and got some good feeling from just being spontaneous, rather than letting spreadsheets, to do lists and my computer searches dictate what was important.
There's something about a garden that just brings me home.
I kept promising myself that I'd cover the parsley with plastic. As a bonus, I took an acquarium and placed it on top of another patch of parsley.
The bonus was that the acquarium is actually transparent on the bottom too, so we can have fresh veggie garnish during the winter, watch how the plant reacts in the sun and winter snow, possibly heating the container and showing it's strength.
I do have some frozen stuff, but it can't be the same, just like other foods out of the freezer.
It is nice sleeping soundly. Today I cut some parsley, and basil for seed since mom pointed out there is going below zero. I suppose I have some quick chores to take care of...
