Kim Smith Has Some Nice Things To Say

Thanks Good Morning Gloucester!

March 21st, 2011

Every morning after our son heads off to school I finish my cup of tea in front of the computer with my favorite blog, Good Morning Gloucester. I love this blog, not only because of the terrific content created by first-rate contributors Joey, EJ, Manny, Felicia, Kathleen, Laurie, et al., but because Joey, the creator of GMG, is truly a genius when it comes to using social media for what I believe to be it’s intended and very best purpose.

Kim Smith Writes In About Baltimore Orioles

Dear Gardening Friends,

With orchard fruit trees coming into bloom, we should be seeing the Baltimore (Northern) Orioles any day now. In mid-March we filled our hummingbird feeders and placed them in the garden, in anticipation of the earliest hummingbird scouts, and last year the orioles drank freely the sugar-water provided for the Ruby-throated Hummingbirds. Sugar-water recipe for orioles and hummingbirds: 1/4 cup granulated sugar to 1 Cup warm water. Stir to dissolve the sugar.  Wash feeders in hot soapy water, with white vinegar added, and replace sugar-water on a twice weekly schedule, to prevent mold.

Oh Joyous Spring!

Warmest wishes,

Kim
