Seasonal Wisdom

My friend Teresa O'Connor - and I mean that in more than a Facebook kind of way -- writes the lovely blog, Seasonal Wisdom, and she shares folklore about New Year's Day, including the fact that it wasn't always January 1.

As an added bonus, Teresa, who gardens in the foothills of Boise, Idaho, has some vintage New Year's cards displayed on her post.

 

Happy New Year from Garden Variety! No matter what day it is where you are!

Susan:

Thanks so much for featuring Seasonal Wisdom in your blog today. The more I study the old folklore and traditions, the more I become convinced that history is truly stranger than fiction.

Have a lovely start into the new year. Cheers! Teresa

It was my pleasure. Your blog is a delight!--Susan

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.
