mitzilou-2's Profile

I enjoy every aspect of gardening from the design element  to  the actual weeding even.  Also,  I take pleasure in the serenity  and solitude,  that the closeness of  nature provides,  in working outside in my garden.  My partner and I live on 5 acres of land, and the majority of it,  we cleared ourselves.  We have a vegetable garden every year,  and I have a perennial garden with cooking, medicinal, and aromatic herbs. I am childlike and whimsical in personality. I'm also a very quiet person, actually an introvert.  I express myself mainly through my artwork and writings.  I enjoy drawing, painting, reading, writing, searching  for wildflowers, being on the computer,  and spending  relaxing time with my partner and family and pets.

 Added Note--------I started on this site on March 30th, 2009 under the name mitzilou, but had to change over to a new account when I had technical problems with my site so, then I become mitzilou-2--------in case you wonder about or get confused why there are two of us------------kinda a split personality---------so, I'm keeping both accounts, so I don't lose my first blogs !  Sometimes old mitzilou pops up here and there, because I can't keep her quiet ! 

Oh, by the way, I have mitzilou listed on MY FAVORITE BLOGS listing if you might ever have a few extra minutes to blow and might acually want to read the early mitzilou blogs..........I know everyone has all this spare, extra, unused minutes in the day ! 

You know what,  mitzilou send me a friend request----which I thought was super nice and thoughtful of her------she is so sweet ! 

Oh, also, in the forums, I have a thread called-----Mitzilou's Secret Little Getaway  Cottage------stop by anytime and say hello------we eat, drink, chat, laugh, share, and have fun !    See you...........mitzi
