| Right now, today. We all know it changes for most of us, depending. Just looking for a bit of distraction to keep me from tromping about the garden and cutting down stalks too early! |

| Well it is my gloves, since I prefer working with my hands. |

| Hmmm... good question. I'm not sure about my favorite, but definitely one of my most used last summer was my wheelbarrow! I'd have a very hard time getting along without it. At least until I've completely filled up this yard with better stuff then grass :-) |

| HORI! Must have my hori-hori!!! It can do just about anything - dig, plant, cut roots, heck on weeds - in any soil! Just ask the folks who watched me whip it out last spring at the swap and dig geum out of the wet soil and gravel! -Marie |

| Love my garden knife! Though I can see already my home-made weed killer (tongs with sponge attached to ends with rubber bands - dip in roundup and stroke along undesirable plant) is going to get much use--quackgrass is up and green, curse it's avaricious little designs! |

A five gallon plastic pail. I can mix in it, haul plants in it, flip it upside down and sit on it, protect a plant nearby while digging, again flipping it upside down, I can carry tools in it, I can carry water in it, I can mix fertilizer in it, I can haul picked flowers in it, I can bring home plants from the neighbors in it. Want me to go on? ;)
Second best is my soil scoop...., maybe.... |

| My Glide-N-Groom hoe. If you haven't tried one, you should. |

| It's gotta be the beer bottle opener. Nothing better than enjoying the garden view from the deck with a cold one. LOL |

Well, rasslinmama, on that note I would have to say my corkscrew! (I am a wine drinker) Ha!
I always carry one in my purse, too. You know, for "emergencies"! Linda |

| What's a Hori Hoi? I googled it but came up blank. |
