Winter Gardening: Purple Kale!

Greetings! 

Have you been paying much attention to your garden lately? I must say... I haven't been. The cold weather has been keeping me inside.

However, I did manage to plant a purple kale plant about 2 months ago! It has lasted through rain, snow, frost, wind, and ice! :)

 

Point of story: If you want something growing in your garden in the winter, but don't want anything high maintenance, plant kale! :)

Merlin the Snow Cat!

The other morning, my significant other, Jon, and I came looked out the window to find 4 inches of snow!!!

Yes, we know he is not normal...

It rarely snows in Palmdale... so needless to say, we were very excited!

And so was Merlin!




   

The last time it snowed was 2 years ago... and it was then we learned that Merlin has a strange affinity for it. What cat loves snow?!?

Most cats would prefer being curled up next to a warm fire. But not Merlin! He stands by the door, begging to me let outside.

So, we let him have his way...

  

Poor Merlin... he had a tooth removed the other day, hence the missing fur on his neck. 



Please tell me Merlin isn't the only weirdo cat that likes snow? :)
