Me and My Red Thumb

As long as I can remember I've wanted to have indoor plants, flower beds outside, gardens...
I am not sure what I do to them, or.. if I am just cursed, but EVERYTIME I bring home a plant or try to grow a garden...it dies...Saria has even had growing seeds in school that she has proudly taken home which have died days later. Last year I tried to do a garden with a buncha herbs and veggies and it was going really well and when we got back home from a weekend trip everything was roasted and dead from the sun. SO I am determined to make one that works..and upon seeing Miss Hila's tomatoes.. and being JEALOUS, I'm going to nerd up on it (read, research) to keep the plants alive this year..please wish me luck, and even say a prayer, because having the DEADLY Midas Touch sorta depresses me..

Hahaha! I loved reading this ;). You are a creative writer. You should include pictures of your plants in the weeks ahead so we can keep up with each other's plants! And don't be jealous of mine... Mine grew so fast now I'm scrambling to get the materials to transplant them! So maybe they won't survive after all!
