Böcker av Laura Christman

Perhaps you are familiar with the term "gardening." It is a tangle of weirdness. Turns out there's more to it than growing a lovely lawn or prolific pepper plant.Planet Pomegranate is a collection of columns written by journalist Laura Christman for the Home & Garden section of the Record Searchlight, the daily newspaper in Redding, Calif. The pieces are a mix of conversations, observation, reflections and frustrations. Some related to the garden; some are not.Revealed are the stories of:¿the spindly spring of tenacious Bermuda grass¿the petticoat that joined the family¿the pumpkin that perplexed a newsroom¿the joyful journey of the wandering lemons¿the greatest donkey that ever livedPlanet Pomegranate explores the wonder of growing - whether it's in the garden or as a person. It is about growing stuff, growing up, staying curious and finding joy in simple things.And appreciating pomegranates - it's about that too.
