Busy Weekend
It's a busy weekend in Cranbrook - with two diverse performances at the Key City Theatre, Khaos, the opera and Johnny Cash. There are St. Patrick Day teas and cabbage dinners going on. If you are brave enough to head out into the garden, now is the time to cut Feather Reed Grass or 'Karl Foerster' grass down to within 20cm of the ground to make way for new growth. It is also the perfect time to do some spring pruning or cleaning - the spring Trash to Treasure Day will be coming up in April. If you are not ready to garden between snow flurries, the stores are looking spring like with chocolate bunnies and pastel colours. A new clothing store, 'Velvet Moss' owned by Jennifer Mouly has taken up residence in the old Please Mum site on a trial basis. If you have visited the Kimberley boutique location of Velvet Moss, you will know Jennifer has some lovely unique and style conscious items of clothing as well as shoes and 'Ginjer Jar' jewelry.

Thanks for the gardening tip re those grasses as I didn't know that. It is hard to get inspired today. Here's another tip, that probably more experienced gardeners know, but we have some clumps of lawn grass showing up in our garden that is hard to get rid of - except that right now it is sooo easy to lift from the dirt without digging - it just lifts right up! Marvelous! Joseph discovered that just the other day.
