May 2019 Calendar

May is one of my favorite months, here is why:

#1 I get to GARDEN, this year I’m going to plant TOMATO’S, POTATOES, CUCUMBERS, GREEN PEPPERS AND BROCCOLI

#2 I get to PULL WEEDS (WHA?), PULL AWAY the ground cover over my PEONIES

#3 Fill my hanging pots with FLOWERS

#4 Look for MOREL Mushrooms (I don’t eat them but I’ll help ♥)

#5 Most of all enjoy the warm SUNSHINE!

Enjoy May for all its beauty and warmth.
