Fertilizer Friday/ Flaunt Your Flowers Nov. 16/12


Copy_of_001
GET READY!!!! IT IS FRIDAY!!! FRIDAY IS FLAUNTING DAY!!! I am so glad you stopped by!
Friday is a BIG day for us here at Tootsie Time…(ok, just me…there is no one else here…lol) It’s a big deal because it means it’s PARTY TIME!!!! Fertilizer Friday is the day of the week than an ELITE group of gardeners from all around the world get together, snap photos, link up and Flaunt Their Flowers!!!
If you are new to Tootsie Time and Fertilizer Friday, I just know you are asking yourself…”How do I join?”
Well…it’s easy really. Here’s all you need to know to become a part of this great group of gardeners, bloggers and friends:
If it is spring or summer where you live, you need to snap a few photos of what you have growing, blooming or just love to look at that is of the plant variety…if it is winter where you live, you may post past favorite photos…or indoor plants…whatever you like. The only criteria is that it is a plant or something growing! You do not need to use fertilizer to participate in this party, but if you do, this is the reminder to fertilize weekly! All I ask is that: Your post must include the logo above and/or a link to Tootsie Time, or t
he linky will be deleted. So....I would like to invite each and every one of you to join in and share your photos...
Another busy week has come and gone in my household…and the snow is still laying on the ground.  We were lucky enough to have some slightly warmer weather in Alberta the last couple of days…it was a welcome event since last weekend brought a big dump of snow and very bad roads for traveling. 
I don’t have anything great to share this week…not much has transpired in the greenhouse since last I showed you…so I think I will share some favorite photos from the past!

I loved that vine that grew up and around the front stoop of my old home.  I hope the ones I planted at this house will do as well…

I didn’t have huge pots of petunias this past year…I think I will try to remember to plant myself some like these next season.

Oh how cheerful all the different colors together are!  This is a must in my gardens EVERY year!

It never seemed to matter what I planted in this bed…it always looked fantastic.  I also really enjoyed the stone pads that I poured to make my path…

Perhaps next summer I will get a chance to make some in this yard.  They sure did compliment the flower pots…and gave a little charm to each area that I used them in!
I miss summer…winter in Alberta is so LONG…listen to me…the winter has only begun and I am already longing for spring!  I must be a gardener!
Okay kids…that is all for me for this week…now it is your turn.,,,
What are you waiting for??? Get flaunting!
I wish all of you hugs and smiles, and safe and happy weekend plans! Thank you all so much for dropping in today, and to those that faithfully link in to this party…and who are patient while waiting for me to finally visit you…THANK YOU!
Until Next Time... Happy Gardening!

It has been another very hectic week in my neck of the woods…I have been on the go every day from morning until I finally get to fall into bed at night!   I have been finishing up some of the house renovation projects that I started…and chasing after my kids…
We got a big snow storm this week…and the weather went from warm and raining on Monday…to freezing cold and snowing by Wednesday!   It is just a part of living in Alberta…ha ha
This week I am sharing some pictures of things I find inspiring.  I am not sure where most of the photos are from…I just liked them when I saw them…and thought maybe you would like to see what inspires this Tootsie when the gardens are being planned.   Take a look:

I am planning on doing this…maybe not with these exact plants…but similar…possibly next spring!  I LOVE this idea!

What a beautiful way to recycle!

I have some old garden hose…I think I might make one of these for the shed door!

How adorable is this little chest of drawers all planted up???

I have always wanted to do something like this…and I never seem to do it!  Hmmmm….

I think this is an absolutely adorable little display!   It wouldn’t be difficult to do something similar….

The most important flower this month would be the Poppy….Remember those who gave their lives so that we could be safe and comfortable…May we never forget.
Okay kids…that is all for me for this week…now it is your turn.,,,
