    Reclaiming real estate, lol

    We've had the veggie garden since we bought this house 9 years back. It was really Dad's fun project. I've had to handle it myself the past 2 eyars, and it is too much for me. This year I didn't get much yield, and the weeds really took over -- it looks like a jungle. So I've planted grass seed.

    All summer when I mow the lawn, the clippings go in a pile we used for fertilizing the garden each Spring. The pile was HUGE! This is how it looked Nov 5th:


    I spent several hours "moving dirt," so to speak. I put the clippings under all the evergreens around the house, and have reclaimed most of the real estate.






    Amazing the space I've found, lol!

    You remembered! Well, I suspect, being Italian and all, I will end up with a few, perhaps in pots? Will have to see how things go, lol.

    Your little doggies sure seem to be enjoying their spacious new territory!
