$4 of happiness


I know this post is a bit off topic, Nails resume tomorrow....


I had four dollars. Just four small ones. I needed tomato plants for my garden. Pretty flowers would be bought later because well they are just for pretty and tomatoes you could eat. I went to the local gardening store knowing that tomatoes now would look pretty sad but maybe i could get four plants for my four dollars.

wow nope not at all $6 for over grown leggy tomato plants. not a special price nothing. GRRRR... Lets try something else. there is a small garden store just down the road from me. I got a great deal on briquets last year there and i bought my tomato plants there last year as well... I'll try there. on the way "God let me be able to buy som pretty plants for my porch... I w3as so pretty the year mom filled them all for me!"

When I got there I found...
50% off all plants!

I was so happy! with my four small ones I was able to buy eight pink begonias, four pink dianthus, and four purple salvia AND my four tomatoe plants i wanted!!!


They may have been a bit on the sad looking side, but with some water and some growing room and a touch of fertilizer they will be beautiful and even though they look sad they have made me so happy!

If you want to see the garden... pop over to the other blog, there are some nice pictures of my garden there.....
