It's What's Up Wednesday!

We’ve got snow on the way and a couple of new articles for you to read today. Did you know that smack in the middle of winter is a great time to grow perennials outdoors on the cheap? You’ll want to check out Lindsay’s piece to see what you can grow and how to get started.

With the price of everything continuing to go up, up, up, I’m all about saving money where I can. While I love my local garden nursery, I have quite a few flowerbeds to fill this summer, and this will definitely help me do it more affordably. 

Plus, there’s something so wonderful about seeing bright green, growing things in the middle of winter. 

It’s a big reason why I force amaryllis and paperwhites this time of year.

Like so many, I spend a lot of time in the kitchen leading up to the holidays. My family and I have been enjoying this pomegranate mulled cider since Thanksgiving. It’s wonderfully warming, easy to make and great for a party, even if it’s a party of one with a good book!
