I still haven’t managed to motivate myself to do much writing this year. Next week I have a sermon to write for church, so I guess I’ll be doing some writing for that.
But mostly the weather here has become warm, the snow is melted and next week we’re in for a heatwave. That means I’m out in the garden starting my spring projects including this:
and this:
I’m tearing out a raised planter bed I made about five years ago. It’s kind of falling apart and had tree roots growing up in it so it’s time to replace it. We’ve also learned that here you need deeper raised bed boxes for the kinds of veggies we like to grow. Once the demolition is done and the area cleaned out, I’ll be building a new planting box for this area. It will be deeper and wider.
In the shop I finished a cutting a batch of 15 rabbit napkin rings — well actually the pattern calls these Easter Egg holders, but I’m going to use them for napkin rings:
I’m thinking I’ll get some more wood and making a few more so I have three sets of eight. The plan is to keep a few for our table and sell the rest at the church’s quilt sale this fall. The rabbits pictured here still need some sanding and some kind of finish.
That’s it for this week — if you need me, I’ll either be writing or out back avoiding writing by building a planter box.

Being nosey about other people’s gardens, what is that cage for?

That’s a catio for my cats. They aren’t allowed outside because we have coyotes and hawks in the area, the cage gives them a little safe outside time.
