Until these slackers start planting some spring bulbs they're on their own. <br /><br />Oh by the way, I really appreciate what you must have had to do to get that eye level shot of the shrooms. It was worth it. ;-)LeSanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07939320676822416742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960442494452732795.post-59285964889345008492009-10-24T02:04:41.253-07:002009-10-24T02:04:41.253-07:00Catherine: I found this source for miniature gard...Catherine: I found this source for miniature garden supplies and thought your littlest gardener might like some of these items in her fairy garden.

You must go out into the garden when the moon is bright and softly utter Peter Pan's words "I do believe in fairies, I do, I do".

Especially if their caretakers are as loving as Sweet Pea is with her ready made villages. I think the mushrooms are a cheerful start. Wouldn't it be cool if they were like the Keebler elves: "Now everyone grab one leaf and let's march to the compost pile. Ready? Go." Wake up every morning to a pristine garden. Miracles do happen. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960442494452732795.post-88829739880128486312009-10-22T09:20:12.476-07:002009-10-22T09:20:12.476-07:00Hello Catherine,

Maybe we have mini ogres around here?!<br />This year my littlest gardener loved picking peas and eating them while playing outside. Last month I noticed little pea plants sprouting all over the lawn. Not the work of fairies, just the result of my little one's slippery fingers.VWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17539135776275337661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6960442494452732795.post-90332746474337843522009-10-22T08:51:22.068-07:002009-10-22T08:51:22.068-07:00What a wonderful posting.
