inToday we received a special “gift” sampling of nutritional, medicinal, herbal tea recipes. The art of herbal tea preparation is a ritual of creating the perfect delicious blend and flavor balance. It encompasses a mix of select herbs appropriately measured to create flavor, nourishment, and served in calm and peace ….with love and care.
Enjoyed by those who treasure
“the art of tea.”

inWow….we sure do miss all of you. It was such a fantastic gardening year. Most of you were generous to trust us to plant new things in your gardens. And you also were with us the entire summer and up to fall by subscribing to our “seasonal maintenance” program. In fact, you were all with us up to the end of November. We completed late fall clean ups for all of you and we are confidant your gardens are in great shape for spring.
Thank You very much for your business this year. Thank you for trusting us and thank you for letting us use our judgment in caring for your property. Truth be told, it’s hard for us to let go in late November. Your yards are our gifts from heaven. Gardening is our joy and our “calling.” It is quite simply our honor to care for your property. We are so grateful for your work and the long term relationships we have built with you.
Please have a healthy, safe and joyous Christmas.
Blessings to all….,.

inHello ContessasHome Friends….
After blogging for fourteen years, and writing about gardening, yoga, my store in Delray, daily reflections and my spiritual prayer times, I am led to pursue my newest “calling.” I want to write a book. I have gazillions of thoughts and ideas in my head about things to write about. I have decided to pursue a writing career. My blog is and will remain a continued communication tool, in order to be able to keep in touch with all of you…..my gardening friends.
I have been thinking about writing professionally for about two years. Today I visited the library to find a few books about how to start a career in writing. I will be doing some studying and some writing. I’m not sure where I’m going exactly…but it is all about getting started. Will it be a novel, or a series of short stories, a devotional, poetry or a collection of daily spiritual reflections. I do not know that yet. But “beginning” is where I will start. Creating characters possibly, making characters come to life, inventing a story and a writers style all come in to play. Being a writer will require some solitude, research, writing and rewriting and using the inner resources of my mind to gather all the material I’ve stored in my brain for these last fourteen years while I was blogging. My inner urge to write comes from my creator. I am no accident and neither is my inner urge to write. It’s all part of His plan for me. My best self so to speak. Diving deep into my mind to explore so many things I have learned about my life, my previous careers and just simply about learning. Life long learners are interesting folk. We have lived and grown and shared. This new adventure is a place I’ve not been before. But it’s been planted as a seed in my heart and so I will begin…..and I bring with me, for support and encouragement, my best friend, and the love of my earthly life and my soul mate. [JB/MP]
Tonight I’ve brought four books home with me from the Duncan Library in Delray. All very different. Each focusing on writing……and so now, for a week or so…. I will become a student of others research about writing. I will share with you as I go along in this new and scary, but exciting writing journey.
