Coming Soon in CozyAtoZ Shop on Etsy

Coming as soon as I weave in some ends on these. That bit of crocheting you see below is market bags hot off the hook. They will join others already in the shop CozyAtoZ on Etsy. To see those use this (link). 

I have more thread too. In the future I will be listing green, pink and lavender bags. I love making these and they are useful in so many ways. During the pandemic I kept one of these bags on a hook by the front door. I used it to hold clean masks and little hand sanitizer bottles. These  bags have an amazing amount of stretch. My son and daughter in law use them lake side when camping. They are great for carrying your sunscreen and towel to the beach. You could use these bags to bring home goodies from the local farmer's market or to carry your books to and from the library. 

Also new around here are the plant in the backyard. All of them that Jim planted are doing well so far. The foxglove attracted my eyes this morning. Aren't they lovely?

What is new from your hands or garden? Would love to hear from you in the comments.

Back with more again soon. Take care and stay cozy!

April is Lawn and Garden Month

Oh April, don't you just love it? Winter is over and spring is truly here. There is a reason that April is both National Garden Month and National Lawn and Garden Month. It it time to get outside in the dirt and freshen things up in the yard and garden. Don't know why we need both but I don't make the holiday list I just like to look it up.

We have been sprucing up our outdoor spaces around here while taking advantage of spring's cooler temperatures. Jim has been planting new things in our backyard flower beds. We have added lots of flowers and colors that hummingbirds like because it is some much fun to watch them exploring the yard for nectar. We are also going to try growing citrus for the first time. We have added a lemon and a lime tree to our backyard.

To make this kind of work easier and therefore more enjoyable you need good tools. The enjoyable part is very important for my retired husband. If he can't find joy and satisfaction in the job he's not going to do it and lord knows he needs something to keep him busy. But back to the tools, we now own a small tiller among other things. 

Working on those flower beds garden watering tools were a big part of the job. Jim believes in using high quality garden tools built to last a long time and make jobs easier. Plus the guy seems to like playing with the hose to care for new tender transplanted flowers or cleaning off the patio. A set up shown below would work great for those jobs. These are from Eley Hose Reels. This comes with 2 nozzles, one for cleaning and one for watering. I really like the idea of a swivel connection, solid brass with no lead, and easy water flow control and this durable watering tool has all those features.  

And finally just a peek at what I see in my front yard right now. My Palo Verde tree is blooming. Bright yellow flowers that the bees love all over it.

Back with more again soon. Take care and stay cozy!
