It's certainly a beautiful sight to see the garden start taking off and "knock on wood" looking healthy. The herb garden is doing exceptionally well, the bugs certainly don't bother them since they have a strong aroma. Lime basils I have to say that this is the first year my tomato plants look decent and… Continue reading Fruits of Labor

Early June Garden
It has been raining a lot in our area, the plus side is that I don't have to water the garden and the downside is that the heavy storm damaged some of the young plants. The weeds also grow a lot faster than I could weed them. The lemongrass is doing well, they repel mosquitoes… Continue reading Early June Garden
Early May Garden
We have been getting a lot of rain in our area, it's raining again today so I couldn't weed the garden. Fortunately, it slowed down and drizzled when I went out to take these photos. I planted the peppers yesterday and it was sunny this morning when I left for work. I covered the peppers… Continue reading Early May Garden
My Backyard Garden
I can't believe almost half a year flew by and my last post was in April, which means I have missed posting in May. My only excuse is working, most companies are now working toward going lean. Our company is working toward that, which means cross-training employees in another job function and cutting back employees.… Continue reading My Backyard Garden
Assignment 25: My Photography Passion
This is my contribution to Scott's Assignment 25: Your Photography Passion. I have to say that I photograph everything around me whether it be plants, nature, people or events.

Saturday Random Photos at My Dad’s House
My sister made Bamboo shoot soup for lunch, it's a tradition Lao food and fresh bamboo shoot tasted a lot better than the ones from the can. It has been raining, and the dark gloomy day is not all bad for photography. I think it made the colors more vibrant and I actually like it… Continue reading Saturday Random Photos at My Dad’s House
PaNoy’s Garden
I didn't have a chance to visit PaNoy's Garden this year, and he is nice enough to email me photos of his garden to share. All photos were taken by PaNoy. PaNoy said "it's been a warm winter so I got things on the grown sooner than previous years. I plan on leaving the banana… Continue reading PaNoy’s Garden
Saturday Random Photos
It's two weeks before Mother's Day, and the Azalea flowers are blooming. Our family call this a Mother's Day flower because we used to live in New York and the Azalea flowers bloom around Mother's day. It's sad that my mom didn't live long enough to see this, perhaps she is admiring it from haven.… Continue reading Saturday Random Photos
My Garden Update
It has been a week since I added more plants to my garden and the weather has gotten a lot warmer, I think we finally get over our cold spell. There is still a lot of work to be done, and I'll be busy gardening in the next few weeks. The photos were taken early… Continue reading My Garden Update
Grandma’s Garden
Click here to watch this video on YouTube Grandma's garden is a true Laotian garden. It's not because she has the straw hat as a scarecrow, not sure if it's working, but her garden is a Lao garden because of the different Lao herbs and vegetables that she grew in her garden. I think it… Continue reading Grandma’s Garden
My Garden Update
It's nice to finally spend the weekend at home again. We have been away a lot camping this Summer and hope to catch a few more camping trips before the season is over. Today is a beautiful morning, but not so much for my garden neighbor's garden. I often heard gardening being compared to life,… Continue reading My Garden Update
Mid Summer Garden
It has been a while since I updated my garden and this year my pickle cucumbers didn't do too well and I was surprised to see one grew in the middle of the garden. My sweet basil is doing well, I planted some in pots and a few in raised bed. The cherry tomato plants… Continue reading Mid Summer Garden
