Save Haven garden

Why the fancy name.

Motivated by old man winter that has over stayed his welcome I need my garden to be portable so I can move it in when the weatherman tells me Mr. Freeze is back for the night

This meaning if I leave my plants outside they will die 

My little portable garden needs a safe Haven at night to keep it warm and cozy until it meets the suns warmth the next day. 

I am anxious to get my lettuce and onions growing so why not plant them on one pot and give myself the option to plant them I'm my big garden after June 1 or keep it portable for convenience and safety. 

This bowl like container was $9.95 at Lowes

I got a great soil mix from Superstore called pro mix that was $6.98

And the lettuce onions and herb plants are usual under $3.00

So what are you waiting for get your garden gloves on and have fun my darlings playing I'm the dirt.

Do it yourself soft hands

So you ever find that no matter how much cream you use for your hands they are still dry and rough. 

How about try a home made exfoliation made from the Ingients in your kitchen cupboard .

You will need :

1 teaspoon sugar 

1 teaspoon olive oil

If desires you can put a few drops of aromatherapy ( I like lemon )

Put one teaspoon olive oil on the plan of your hand 

Pour 1 teaspoon sugar on top of the oil and add your aromatherapy on top

Give your hands a good scrub and make sure your whole hand gets some scrubbing action

Rinse with warm water dry and apply moisture cream. 

Happy soft hands my darlings

It is chemical free.

How to put together:

Boil water and fill up your beer mug half full of boiled water
