This Perfectly Imperfect Life

Head on over to #GardenWalk's new home for the #GardenWalk Celebrates Autumn Round-Up by clicking here .

#GardenWalk now has its own home and can be found here ! I've wanted to do this for quite some time and I'm thrilled to finally have it up and running! Please bear with me though, as it's a work in progress while I get the kinks worked out. When I return from vacation next week, I'm going to kick things off with a #GardenWalk Celebrates Autumn Round-Up! Of course you can still and always will find the Archives for #GardenWalk here at The Portable Homestead here  or find it under the Pages listing on the top left corner of the home page. 

My apologies to everyone! I have been having issues with scheduled posts again and instead of them showing up here, they've disappeared.  So, today I am going to feature tweets from the week ending yesterday and we'll pick up again next week as usual. I invite everyone to take a look back at the #GardenWalk hashtag feed by clicking here so you can see the inspiring late Summer shares from gardens around the world! A note about #GardenWalk Thursdays: Because I started doing the Weekly Round-Up and combined that and the #GardenWalk Thursday Featured Tweeter into one post a while back to avoid double posts each week and the Weekly Round-Up is getting such a positive response, I've decided to discontinue #GardenWalk Thursdays altogether.  You may share whatever day of the week you like or daily! And I will continue to share as well and do the Weekly Round-Up here. And now for this week's Featured Tweeters! Hope you have a nice evening (another variation same plan...

Instead of doing 2 posts for the #GardenWalk Featured Tweeters each week, once on Thursday and again on Friday or Saturday, I'm going to try combining the 2 posts into one weekly post, which will appear here on Friday or Saturday each week and will feature both those who share for #GardenWalk Thursday and those who share daily throughout the week. First up, our #GardenWalk Thursday Featured Tweeter for Thursday, 8/8/13: Favorite pick today in the veggie and cut flower garden. #gardenwalk #gardenchat pic.twitter.com/I6GiBfq8yy — Bren (@BG_garden) August 9, 2013 Heres what Im bringing in from my #gardenwalk tonight @bloominchick pic.twitter.com/nhYo5HVHcB — Bren (@BG_garden) August 9, 2013 And now for our #GardenWalk Featured Tweeters for the week of 8/3/13 through 8/9/13: Evening #gardenwalk #rosechat #gardenchat #flowers #gardening http://t.co/5mrmQt7QGZ — Teresa Byington (@agardendiary) August 4, 2013 The #hibiscus are so full of #flowers thi...
