Well, Halloween is a few short weeks away, so I thought I would dress up the website to reflect the coming season. I chose this image, because when my husband and I first moved into our new home, we found a beautiful blue skull in the backyard. It is now sitting on the patio table in the sunroom.
I really like it, and it fits in well. Every Halloween season I drag out all my favorite horror films and enjoy having my own little Halloween fest. On my old entertainment site, I enjoyed adding my favorite 31 films with the intent of watching one everyday. That is usually the intent. However, I generally get to watch about ten of them before something attracted my attention. Perhaps, I will post a few on the newer ones next month.
Meanwhile, I have set up my hydroponic systems with the usual herbs and vegetables. They are growing well. As for what they are, you can check out my previous posts, because today's plants are of the same variety as back then. I found that these plants grow easily, and are easy to maintain as well as being tasty additions to our diet.
Perhaps one day I will give you pictorial tour of the sunroom, and then tell you how I put it together. Since it is my first experience with a sunroom, there was a lot I had to learn about shielding the plants from the sun rays, its heat and humility, and also what are the right types of cooling and heating systems.
You say, "Heating systems. This is Florida. Why would you need a heating system?
Well, yes it is Florida, and during some of the past winters it has been pretty cold. Since it is my educated guess that this sunroom is not insulated, I believe it will as cold out there as it can get hot right now. Therefore, good portable cooling and heating system is very helpful. But more on all things sunroom on a later date. Right now, I am working on some minor things that will make the sunroom the perfect place to drink a cup of tea and watch the sun rise, read a book, or better yet, toast a brilliant sunset goodnight with a glass of wine.
Until then,
Happy Halloween!
