Gardening




                                                                                                                 

I live in a tiny flat in the heart of North Beach. It is way too small if you are based in the suburbs. But for us here in the city, the important thing is the location, location, location. I am lucky to have landed in  this refuge with dear husband since 2006. Most of our neighbors got no veranda and we got one. The rent is astronomical. Well, "you make ado with what you have." That is my motto. So in this little corner of my world,  I have carved a nook where I can enjoy the blessings of God in His creation of flowers, foliage and birds. Do you have a space more than what you have? You should be thankful because not many has that luck.
