Victory Garden Planning – January 2024

Published on January 16, 2024May 12, 2025 by Susie @ Pollywog's Place Blog6 Comments

No catchy title line here… no time for that today as the kids and the dog have been WILD! I’m exhausted and it isn’t even lunchtime yet!

We are almost halfway through the first month of the year and I’m already behind on my garden duties! Granted, we have had some CRAZY weather here and the house remodel has taken first priority but things still have to get planned so we can try to have an even more abundant garden this coming year!

Unfortunately, we did end up in bed for most of last week with the dreaded C word… not fun at all but we are on the mend now and the kids are definitely feeling better as they have been SUPER LOUD the past few days. My poor head is still hurting and so is my body but I know that this too will pass. I also hate to admit it but I was not in the best of attitudes over the past several weeks for many reasons but after reading this post about the OPPOSITE OF THE PROVERBS 31 WOMAN I am committed to making some changes.

I think it’s been a little while since we’ve posted any life updates and quite a bit has happened over the past few months so I thought I’d give a quick summary of what we’ve been up to.

Eggs, Milk, and Coffee (Update pics!)

Published on May 11, 2023August 12, 2023 by Susie @ Pollywog's Place Blog1 Comment

What do eggs, milk, and coffee have in common? Well, they can all be used for a variety of things and we often have them on our grocery list but right now they are also on my morning chores list. (Hopefully, 2 of the 3 will soon be off the grocery list.)
