    Our heads are in the Clouds

    Our heads are in the Clouds

    Literally. In more ways than one. Sun free living can make a person or an animal sad. But I have an antidote! Seed catalogues 🤭 Let yourself plan. I am going to bet on an early spring and late frosts. It is time to get out all my saved seeds. And pour over the catalogues…
