Shopping

I spent far too much time on Thompson & Morgan's website today looking though their online seed catalogue. I'm trying to not sepend a fortune on seeds but it is very difficult to resist the pretty flowers and the interesting vegetables.
Earlier my shopping cart total was estimated at a little over $100, which was more then I wanted to spend. Now, after removing some plants and adding others, it's just under $150.

Spending so much on seeds seems a little silly in some ways but when you consider the number of hours of enjoyment a garden gives you in comparison to other forms of entertainment you can spend money on, suddenly $150 for seeds doesn't seem so bad.
It looks even cheaper when you consider the savings I'd have from collectiong seeds from this summer's plants for next year's use. Gardening pays for itself if you do that really...

Yeah, I'm trying to talk myself out of taking things off the list. (sigh)
