Lavender atbp.

When I was in the Philippines, I have turned a small plot into a flower and herbal garden following the techniques in square foot gardening. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to see them grow--I was told that the basil flourished. In the same plot, my Itay decided to grow a passion fruit , but after a year or so, it didn't bear fruit, so he just uprooted it. My desire to cultivate plants led me to opt for a window garden. We are living in an apartment without a terrace but we are lucky to have two large windows. So this is the only solution for me to have a garden within my reach. I have basil, parsley, coriander and lavender. Seeing that they are doing okay, I am planning to add four more plants to my collection. Do you want to share your window garden techniques? Feel free to post your ideas here.

Yet,the real treat was in the old town. Walking on the paved street for me was like being transported to another era. Aside from Musée des Beaux-Arts Dijon, we were able to visit Cathédrale de Saint Bénigne and the Notre Dame de Dijon. However,due to time constraint we were not able to visit other places. Our evening meal was in Le Théâtre des Sens, a small but cozy restaurant and where I've tried escargot. Yes, I did and blame it on the kir! Our dinner was really good,the waiter was very cheery and accomodating. We stayed at the Hotel Des Ducs where we spent the rest of the night watching crime scene investigation. Ah! the joy of havin

Light in the sky

For a long time I am fascinated by the sky, but this has been fuelled up when I joined Sky Watch Friday . I am really thankful for this!
