Even though it started out well enough, I just became completely bored, and sick of him and his lover in bed on every other page. But, dear Lucy seems so wonderful! I read the first pages and was immediately sucked in with my heart. We'll have to talk when we finish it.Bellezza https://www.blogger.com/profile/18073864187188953633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4041753785577045651.post-80097514594342478142014-04-15T14:01:23.468-04:002014-04-15T14:01:23.468-04:00I like the looks of Mrs. Hemmingway.

I use wood for my garden beds. I've had a few of them for almost 20 years and they won't deteriorate if you use the good stuff. My first attempt was using cheap wood and within a few years it warped and split. I hear you about the bunny wire, and sometimes they get in anyway! I use whiskey barrels for planting herbs and lettuce - too high for the bunnies and easier on my back. Happy gardening and nice week in books too!Leslie (Under My Apple Tree)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17822229389189435951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4041753785577045651.post-25782278741115965882014-04-14T14:51:47.683-04:002014-04-14T14:51:47.683-04:00Good luck with gardening, we'll be tackling ou...Good luck with gardening, we'll be tackling ours again this year (and trying to keep the rabbits out). <br /><br />Jack of Spies sounds like a good read.
