picked up candy canes and more oranges…
makes a lovely display on the table in the living room and ensures I have treats available whenever someone stops by…
I also picked up unshelled nuts (much harder to find these days) which have been a long time family tradition;-)…

went to look at what plants were available in the stores on Sunday…
it is too soon to do any planting so my goal was to see what is out there…
but then I bought a few things…
picked up a flat of white alyssum and one of purple lobelia… I’ve used these for a number of years in the planters around the deck… the colour and scent add to the peaceful feeling in the garden…
then I chose a basket of midnight stars petunias… petunias have not been one of my favourites, but the flowers on this plant are amazing… this will go into the planter right outside the front door…
finally, a hanging basket of fuchsia, red and purple, which will hang close to the hot tub…
considering that I wasn’t going to buy anything, I guess I did well to stop when I did, lol…
