I guess I could say, in my defense, that I was actually gardening and not sitting on my ass blogging about every event that's garden/plant/flower related. The problem is, just about every aspect of my life is related to plants, flowers and garden and I can't even begin to choose what to share.
Plus, I've also just been so overwhelmed with work. It is FALL after all! Clean up is endless and preparations for the winter, plus TEACHING; the weeks go by so fast and, olly crap, it's almost NOVEMBER!!!
So, here's are some events that took place over the past month. Why don't YOU choose which topic I should do a full blog post on:
-My cousin Jocelyn got married (yes, another wedding, but I didn't do the flowers this time, but there's still something plant related that's cheesy and hilarious)
-A wedding also means a little family reunion. I had cousins stay with me and see my garden which included grapes my grandfather planted that ripened just in time.
-Just got back from my first ever trip to the Northeast hitting up New York City, New Jersey, and the Philadelphia area to visit family, friends, and, of course, GARDENS! I'm sure there will be a post on this no matter what. Hahaha...it was pretty incredible!
-Finished my design for my show garden for the 2013 Northwest Flower and Garden Show.
-Filmed the second episode of the "Next Generation Gardener" (currently being produced and edited!)
-Presented my first talk called "Travels of a Garden Foodie" to a local garden club.
-Started teaching a class on Nursery and Greenhouse Production at Edmonds Community College.
-Landwave Gardens in the fall is always a treat as the landscape really lights up.
-It's that time of year where I'm preparing for the winter and digging, dividing, and transplanting all sorts of plants.
I'm sure this isn't all of it, but take your pick(s) and I'll get another post up.
