Not sure if this is relevant, but there is a very cool event at the Howard Peters Rawlings Conservatory in Druid Hill Park on Sunday from 11-3 called Art Under Glass. Local artists will be displaying and selling their works amidst the gorgeous and exotic setting of the Conservatory. It's $35 in advance, and $50 at the door. There will be light fare and drinks served, and a jazz ensemble.

About Susan Reimer
Susan Reimer has spent 16 years writing about raising kids - among other topics - in her column for The Baltimore Sun. And every time son Joseph or daughter Jessie passed another milestone - driver's license, college, wedding or a move to a new military duty station - she has planted another garden. Now she will be writing about those gardens - and yours - here on Garden Variety.

Susan isn't an expert gardener, but she wasn't an expert mother, either. Both - the kids and the gardens - seem to be doing well in spite of her.

She lives in Annapolis with her husband, Gary Mihoces, who loves to cut his grass but has noticed that there seems to be less of it every time the kids pass another milestone.
