A Little Getaway & Frugal Accomplishments
On Monday, I baked the last 3 spaghetti squash, and froze them. The 6 remaining butternut squash were cubed and frozen. All that's left in storage is a huge cushaw squash. The creeping jenny is doing well in the porch bed. We transplanted several sprigs to other places we'd like it to grow. The zinnia seeds are coming up nicely. We planted several basil plants and a stevia. We created and powder coated two orders, and shipped them on Saturday. Another order came in over the weekend.
To celebrate our anniversary, we had a little getaway to Charlottesville. Our main desire was to visit Monticello. We also visited Ashland/Highland, said to be the home of James Monroe, though we heard murmurings that new information had come to light that it was instead the guest home. We did not tour that home, but enjoyed a folk festival there, and purchased two heirloom apple trees. At Monticello, I bought a birdsfoot violet, black cohosh, and a globe artichoke. We'll be making our way home today. Have a lovely week, friends.

Thanks, Michele! It was a nice getaway. We also did tastings at two wineries.
