Let the Garden Ranting Begin

June 13, 2006 · 4 comments

Garden_rant_for_buttonReaders, it can now be revealed that I’ve been meeting privately behind your backs with two other gardening bloggers -  by email, by telephone and even in person! – to plan and implement our scheme for world domination.  In fact, the introductory feeler Amy Stewart sent to Michele Owens and me was entitled "World Domination," which got our attention.  That’s Amy – a trim wisp of a woman who thinks BIG.  And all that scheming has paid off because Garden Rant is already more than I’d hoped for – good-looking, funny and provocative as hell.  And isn’t that provocative element exactly what the online world has added to the gardening conversation?  Damn right, and long overdue.

So meet me over at Garden Rant for rants and raves and the kind of smart-aleck behavior my mother tried so hard to discourage.  But Mom, this is so much more fun.

I’m always up for a thoughtful rant. I look forward to seeing what you three get into.

I clearly have my finger on the pulse of garden blogging, don’t I! I guess I haven’t been gardening long enough to have anything to rant about other than Opressive Houston Heat and Aggressive Houston Mosquitos, so I’m happy someone is up to the task of ensuring progress in GardeningLand.

susan, what’s the possibility of combining this delightful garden rant with your anti-war ideas. it’s only an idea of humungeous flowers, dancing girls and boys…you, however, could probably conflate it into something to unsettle D.C. -naomi

Naomi, it’s weeks later and I’m still having fun cogitating on your unsettling comment. Susan
