Jojo's first visit to Alabama
Summing up memoirs in such a short sentence is not an easy thing for me because I have so many different interests and passions. I've come up with six sentences containing six words, but I need help in picking one .
First, I thought :
God was the first master gardener.
Then I came up with :
Old woman, but a young gardener.
Then I thought, nah, what about :
Gardeners have tough rows to hoe.
-or these -:
I dream of May in December.
Gardeners don't die, they spade away .
You should've been here last week.
So whadda ya' think.? All six could do but which one should I settle on? Help me out here people !
I like "I dream of May in December".
ReplyDeleteThanks, Gina.
ReplyDeleteI agree 'May in December' sounds like you....
ReplyDeleteI can relate to: 'You should've been here last week' - that's great!
'You should have been here last week' gets my vote
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ingar for casting your vote.
ReplyDeleteIt does seem that when you have visitors the garden looked better last week, thus the popular saying.
Hi VP all the way from the UK and welcome. Thanks for stopping by and leaving your comment. I shall return the favor.
ReplyDeleteLOL! Instinct tells me to vote for "God wasthe first master gardener," but for silly reasons I love "You should've been here last week!"
ReplyDeleteXOXO!!! Thanks for playing!!! xo = Debi @ GHT
You're most welcome, Debi. Thanks for thinking of me.
ReplyDeleteI love "in December, I dream of May." Don't we all?~~Dee
ReplyDeleteYes we do, Dee. Thanks for dropping by.
ReplyDeleteBeing a master gardener, I like your first one - "God was the first master gardener!" However, haven't we all said the last? Yes, and often! Thanks for playing, dear! Debi @ GHT
ReplyDelete"You should've been here last week..."gets my vote. Seems to me that the garden is always loveliest the week BEFORE guests are due to arrive!
ReplyDeleteWell the votes are getting close between " I dream of May in December " and " You should've been here last week. " Thanks for dropping by becca. And you're right, the garden is always better before visitors get to see it.
ReplyDeleteI left my comment before I read all the others. I thought the "should've been here last week..." was isolated to my garden. Now I see that it is a universal conundrum!
ReplyDeleteSorry, just passing by, but if you're sticking with what you've been asked for (memoirs in 6 words) then there is really one appropriate phrase:
ReplyDeleteOld woman, but a young gardener.
All the others are amusing/clever, some about gardeners in general, some cryptic, some about what you think. But they don't convey much about who you are!

Thanks, Eva for dropping by and casting your vote.
ReplyDeleteGod was the first master gardener, is my choice if you are still taking votes. I like the May one too.
