Still in the Garden: making soil blocks.

Crafting? What is crafting? I am a gardener, not a crafter. At least in the spring.

We've been busy making soil blocks with this amazing little tool and starting pepper, tomato, kale, and cucumber seeds. Today we'll add some broccoli, pumpkins and watermelon to the mix.

I realized last night that I promised you a decoupage easter egg tutorial on Monday. And now it is Tuesday. And I haven't written it yet. Forgive me? I am completely immersed in garden mode and forgot all about all things eggs or woolen.

My plan today is to get out of the garden for a couple of hours and make some eggs with the kids and bring you the tutorial tomorrow. Until then we'll have soil under our nails and be in the backyard if you need anything.

Love,
Rachel

No, you won't find me feeding into the myth of perfection, but you can count on me to show up real and raw with lessons and beauty that I find in the ordinary.
