This has been the coldest, wettest winter of my life & I live in ALABAMA! That crazy groundhog predicted 6 more weeks of winter, and guess he was right :( More snow is expected this weekend.
I'll be listing a few winter items and lotsa spring stuff over the next few days, so please check it out : http://NoniesNook.com

Busy Summer Already!
Hello fans!
Apologies for my extended absence.
We have been busy with yardwork, renovations, and gardening!
We have (6) 2.5 ft tall tomato plants and each one has several small tomatoes on it & more several blooms!
Besides the maters, we have an 11'x18' plot which contains 6 red & yellow bell peppers, 2 hills of yellow squash, 2 hills zucchini, a hill of cantaloupe, a teepee of pole beans, 4 rows of peas, and 3 long rows of okra, green & red!
I may add 2 more pepper plants- there's just enough room left, lol!
We'll be eating good in a few weeks :-)
We also expanded our front flower bed and added more plants! I'll post pics when everything starts blooming good.
Happy farming!

Thank You Kind Lady in the Little Shiny Blue Car - Random Act of Kindness
So there I am at north Wal-Mart, pulling into crowded gasoline area & kicking myself for not stopping at the Mom & Pop's up the road.
I enter the lot behind a white SUV. He takes a place in line 2 pumps away, I pull in behind the little shiny blue car. It appeared the driver was about to leave. 2 minutes go by, finally the driver exits her vehicle and goes to the window to pay. Noooo, she's not even started.
Meanwhile, the white SUV gets to pull up and begin pumping. Nice black silk slacks. Driver ahead of me returns, and begins to pump her gas. I'm screaming in my head & giving ugly looks to her back. The wind gets up, she struggles with her coat & hoodie, and I felt a big wave of sympathy/empathy/whatever... I felt for the girl, the wind was cold!
So, I take a deep breath, and start just looking around the lot, being patient, trying to find my happy self. A few minutes pass, and it seems she's trying to catch my eye (maybe?) then she goes back to the window. Noooooo!!!! I've been here for 10 minutes now, the guy in the white SUV filled up & left 2 cars ago, for pete's sake!!
I didn't even see her return, but looked around & her car was pulling away... woohoo!! I pull up, jump out, insert card in pump, screen reads 'cannot process card now' WTH? Cancel, try again, same message. *sigh* I go to the window to pay, thinking 'maybe this is what held ole girl up, I should never have felt irritated with her, for shame'
What happened next made me feel even smaller. The lady at the window says 'She left you 3.77 credit.' 'Huh?' says I. 'That lady in front of you- do you know her?' 'No' 'Well, she came back over here and said to give her change in gas to the lady behind her, that's why it won't take your card. Go pump it and come back'
O .... K
So, I pumped the 3.77, and think 'well, it'll probably take my card now, I don't have to go back to the window', but I hoped to learn a little more about my benefactor. The station attendant says 'so you didn't know her?' I said 'No ma'am, sure don't' & she says 'well, that's a blessing right there, thank Jesus for her' I agreed, thanked her warmly, and spent the rest of my day in a warm 'n' fuzzy little place and was especially nice to everyone I saw. :-)
A big THANK YOU to the lady in the little shiny blue car. You touched someone today & the story of your random act of kindness will be remembered and shared. xoxo
