They say home is where your heart is. In February of 2006 I left Virginia, the place I’d called home for 13 years. Virginia is where I went to school, made friends, knew everyone and their business. I grew up in a very small town where everyone knew you and you knew them. You knew

I want to start this post by coming clean to you all. I am NOT a gardener. I was not born with a green thumb like my parents and grandparents. As a matter of fact, if there is a such thing as a “black” thumb, that’s what I was blessed with. I have committed more
