Back in the garden

Loyal Garden Variety readers: I'm back!

I spent six days in sunny Southern California (renewing my vows to grow more succulents this year), but I have returned and will be posting some catch-up items.

Had hoped to post photos of "spring" there, but a new grandchild absorbed all my attention, time and digital space on the camera.

I returned to a Mid-Atlantic warm spell, and I hope to get out into my garden this weekend to remove some of the storm damage and begin cleaning up the beds for OUR spring.

Join me in the garden, or here on Garden Variety!

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.
