Show your love . . . vote!Thank you for nominating this blog for Best Garden Blog Design. I’ve put a lot of thought and hours into the design, and I’m pleased that you appreciate my efforts.

According to the Mouse & Trowel website, “the Mouse & Trowel Awards were created by freelance writer and garden blogger Colleen Vanderlinden to honor and reward excellence in online gardening. Awards for a variety of blog and website categories, as well as podcasting awards, are awarded every May after nomination and voting phases.”

You don’t have to be a garden blogger to vote. You don’t have to blog at all to vote. But really, you should check out the blogs before you vote, if you’re not familiar with them.

What beginning gardeners need most, in fact, is old gardeners, the ones who’ve made do all along and who are starting their seedlings in windowsills right about now.

Congratulations, Kathy! I may use a template out of the box, but have some sense of the work involved from hanging out with you and MSS.

You have a lovely blog.

Congrats on your Mouse & Trowel. You have one of the best designs in garden blogging. I’m not always sure that people who use templates “out of the box” understand the level of customization and thoughtful design that goes into creating a site like yours. But your nomination proves they do. You have my vote.
