Hello:
I live with my husband (of 41 years) way out in the toolies.
We have three grown sons--no grandchildren.
I'm an avid reader, writer, and I enjoy cooking. Currently, I'm resuming herb and vegetable gardening after a long hiatus.
Desert gardening is tricky. Winter is our main garden season. This year I'm experimenting with large desert style cold frames so I can grow winter vegetables September through February.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed
