But we certainly don’t.
I’d rather have a garden in the backyard. Have you seen those articles in the paper that highlight people’s gardens? I want THAT.
So I started. By begging people.
I got lilies (in my favorite color, yellow, to be seen in a month or so);
I got tulips from the hardware store 
I got peonies that I planted next to things that will not be blooming forever;
I got rhubarb and can’t wait to make something yummy with it;
and some ground cover that Neighbor Dave thinks might be a weed but you and I know is Snow on the Mountain. Hopefully it can kick the grass’ ass.
