Discovered Mary Jane's Farm magazine a few months ago and have been enjoying everything Mary Jane since.
I love to sew (but don't do much of it), crochet, and garden. I have a tiny little lot but do my best to grow as much as I can. I love learning new techniques and ideas for gardening in small spaces.
I am lucky enough to teach students with severe disabilities ages 12-22. I love my job and my students.
I am the proud mama to 3 beagles and 1 cat who thinks he's the best looking beagle ever.
All children are gifted. Some just open their packages a little later. |

Welcome, Andee. You'll fit it great with all of us. Enjoy your time with the MJF. What are the dogs and cat names? I love animals.

Welcome, Andee! I bet your 'little lot' is filled with wonders. Please share some of your techniques.

Welcome Andee from a North coast California girl. I am glad you joined.
That Lavender Festival sounds neat Terri! Is that way down Southern CA?

Hi Darlene,
Yes the Festival is in the high desert region of southern CA. It is only about a half hour from here (Hemet) which surprised me.
I am lucky to have so many wonderful things so close to me.
Bless you,
Terri |

Welcome Andee from another former S. CA girl! I grew up in the Orange County area and graduated from Edison High School in Huntington Beach. I moved east when I got married at the tender age of 19! I've been out east for over 30 years now, but still long for the west. Might still get back out there one of these days...
Glad to have you with us You will love it here!!
Cyn~

Hi Cyn, or since you used a purple font should I say Hi-a-cynth?
Sorry, bad joke.
Nice to meet another CA gal even if you have moved.
I grew up in Anaheim but am very familiar with HB. Second best beaches in CA next to Newport Beach.
Hugs,
Terri |
