Each spring, I dream of creating an English Garden. I have attempted to create one many a times. Unfortunately my house faces due west, so by late July-early August my flowers usually fade. Of course I am going to try again this year. I love the controlled chaos of an English Garden. Maybe it is my fascination with all things English. From Masterpiece Theatre, Kate Winslett's cottage in The Holiday, Pride and Prejudice, and British shelter magazines, I am obsessed. I love to look up castles on the internet. Oh, and lets not forget The Tudors. Maybe I need to just take a trip England! Sometimes I wish I could be like Gwyneth Paltrow, the perfect American transplant.
