Thank You Eli Kramer

It turns out garlic mustard makes beautiful paper! I definitely want to make more for the show in January, which means more plants need to be collected. That was my goal for the weekend.

Thank you to my son Eli Kramer for taking on the task of collecting two bags FULL of garlic mustard yesterday at Fenner Nature Center. It wasn't an easy job (especially in his flip flops) but well worth the dollar amount I paid him!

On our walk, we spotted Virginia bluebells with garlic mustard growing right beside it. I was anxious to pick this garlic mustard and as I crouched down, a snake slithered not three feet from where I stood. I screamed in a not-so-delicate manner and quickly headed off in a different direction.
