@funcountess, Shame on your wildlife for not leaving any of your veggies for you to enjoy!
Like you, I have enjoyed sharing my cut flowers with neighbors and friends in the past. However, because gardening is challenging both because of heavy clay and arid high heat, I never gave myself permission to bring them into my own home. Now, because of the pandemic, I started with forsythia and daffodils; now bright yellow sprigs of fragrant dessert broom are sweetening my family room.

After my transplant, we moved to a small house on the edge of a sea loch with a well established garden and, holy of holies, a greenhouse! I've always wanted one and now it is my solace and my refuge. My heart breaks for those in self isolation without a garden. I've just sent off my first order for vegs, herbs and summer plants to my local garden centre who are providing a delivery service for the first time. So many of our small local supliers have gone online for the first time and I thank them all from the bottom of my heart. The word here in Scotland is that the 'shielded' group , which includes all transplant recipients, will be the very last to join the rest of society. It is hard to think of sometimes but, when i feel a little low, I just head outside and count my blessings.
