The plum tree is blooming, it made it! :) I'm so glad this made it through and the roots are grounded and hopefully in a year or so it'll produce fruit, but for now it's absolutely beautiful to look out the window and see all these beautiful branches blooming.

I tried to make new cookies. These are my trail mix cookies - they are made with whole wheat flour, organic/raw agave nectar, dark chocolate, cranberries, pecans and coconut! They were actually really good! I have turned over a new leaf with what I eat and wanting it to be much better for me. This was a start!

I love this stuff... I hate that I have to use it but it's amazing! The cats have been making a mess again and my steamer doesn't work very well. LA is going to let me borrow hers this weekend so I can really get my carpets clean again. One day I'll get the part I need so my steamer works the right way again!

They are finally done! They have to be flipped over and pounded into the ground and then filled with dirt yet... soon to come hopefully in a couple of weeks! our great neighbors are also getting dirt/compost for their garden beds as well so they have offered to get dirt for us at the same time as well!
