The last time my daughter visited she gave me a package of grass seed to plant. One of my cats loves to chew on grass and what she (my daughter) had left before was dead. I finally got around to planting them Monday afternoon and look how well they're doing already! For some reason this pleases me a great deal. I keep going out and staring at them. Hopefully I won't overwater - I'm trying to be careful though. My worst gardening habit is a belief that there is no such thing as overwatering.
Since I was taking pictures I thought I'd share my tulips also. I went to Trader Joe's tonight and saw these. Sometimes being poor can force you into good choices. I had this thought in the back of my mind that maybe I'd buy cookies for me. Then I saw the tulips and really wanted them. They were $3.49, about the same as cookies. As you can see I went with the tulips. All in all a much better choice I think!
