Steve and Cathy's Garden Blog, Chronicling our Earth Friendly Garden Retreat. Introducing Our Dogs - Mister Dudley. May 31, 2010. Our very difficult winter - illness, flooding from the severe winter storms, downed trees - is finally behind us but the sad news continues. His playful antics and perfect imitations of fire and ambulance sirens will be deeply missed. His picture was taken two weeks ago. He was the fabulous big brother to Emily, Toughie, Katie, and Elizabeth. We're going to miss you, Big Guy.

Steve and Cathy's Garden Blog, Chronicling our Earth Friendly Garden Retreat. Saturday, July 11, 2015. Fire: A Potentially Deadly Consequence of the Drought. Grass and brush fires are often spread even more quickly by brisk winds. The hills were a verdant green in early spring. Lack of rain has killed the grass. Tonight we had our first (and I'm hoping only) fire scare. Behind our apartment complex is open space. A railway and road run past, and beyond that are hills that border the valley. T...At about ...

Steve and Cathy's Garden Blog, Chronicling our Earth Friendly Garden Retreat. Thursday, January 31, 2013. Katie, the Home Wrecker - Girl Interrupted. Author's Note: This post first appeared on my craft blog, The Seaside Rose Cottage. On June 21, 2010. At first I thought that someone must have spilled some in the workshop and that she was somehow getting in there and scavenging. That part of the house is generally off limits to the dogs and the workshop door is not left open so that was a stretch to b...

Steve and Cathy's Garden Blog, Chronicling our Earth Friendly Garden Retreat. Saturday, June 20, 2015. Recently, one of favorite recipe sites, All Recipes.com. Posted this amazing tip. About scallions, known as green onions or spring onions. Steve loves green onions in salads and sandwiches and so I decided to try it. My biggest frustration is that the bunches of green onions we buy often wilt in the refrigerator (despite storing them in a special container designed for them). Links to this post. There w...

Zephirine Drouhin covers a trellis bench in our cottage garden in Newburyport, Massachusetts. Many years ago, when I was creating my very first rose garden, I discovered a wonderful nursery where I could indulge my love of old garden roses. My love affair with Zephirine Drouhin.
