Garden Notes

I’ve actually done two rounds of planting since I last checked in – all of the surviving seedlings are now in larger pots. I need to do something about my marigold starts. I’m not having good luck in the pods. I may try those in larger flats next year, and prick them out into these

Nona the Ninth – Tamsyn Muir

Leave a Comment / At Home, Reading / Megan

This series is a wild ride. The last book has one of the least reliable narrators ever, that more or less resolves itself by the end of that particular part of the story. So leading into this book, you feel like you should know what’s going on, except it gets less and less clear as
