Working on a small succulent fairy garden. Somehow I am thinking a little Gnome my son brought me back from Scotland would be better off in this garden.
I'll try to post a picture of the garden on Sat if I get it finished.
Hugs Mel

Just finished it.
I am giving it to my youngest son for his desk.
Minimal watering once every 3-4 weeks.
Sleeping Gnome is from Scotland,, Gardening Gnome is his brother that lives in Arizona.

I am happy that Laura Secord finally brought back their butterscotch lollipops so I can have one this day. I only bought 1 bag of 12 as I was going to buy another bag at another store but the other store never received any so I will have to savour the ones I got. Apparently they are in great demand and short supply. The store in Pickering was very surprised that I actually got some from Yonge & Eglinton store. The store clerk even joked that she would have to drive down there to buy some for her store. I told her don't even think about driving to Yonge & Eglinton due to the crosstown LRT traffic issues.
