Why fight it? When the tulips die back, I can finally get in there to cut the spent leaves and go after the weeds and invasives underneath.
The amount of heavy foliage in this yard is pretty impressive. This is as green as it gets in Seattle. By June, the strong sun dries things out and the yard won't be this lush again until next year.
Speaking of the crazy world we live in, with a combination of digital coupons and rewards, I bought a 12 pound ham at Safeway for about $5. That was $2 less than the loaf of bread in the cart.
Yes, ham means Easter is approaching-- always my superstitious deadline for cleaning the windows.
Well, you need to see before and after to appreciate how much more light comes in the house once the winter grime is gone.
This Windex product with the hose attachment is my best friend. Not a perfect clean but good enough, and old ladies don't need to be climbing up ladders.
