This Year's Garden
This will be our first year, and our first attempt at a real garden. I have lovely soil full of clay and rocks that we had to give a lot of help to but I am hoping (and praying) I have some success with growing some veggies this year. Wish us luck!

Have you joined Paperback Swap yet?
I know I've mentioned this site before, but I have been enjoying how many awesome books I am getting, and sending to other members I wanted to give it another plug!
I love how the site tracks how much I've saved by swapping books with other members ($76.50 to date!).
If you are a bookworm like me you've got to check out this site, very user-friendly, great program to get rid of the books you know you'll never read again, and get some books that you want to read without paying bookstore prices!
Perfect time to join if you haven't already... need those paperbacks to bring to the beach, sit outside and read and enjoy the great weather!
