Just For Fun
Artist Fransdita Muafidin photoshops cats onto pictures so they look really, really, really big!! I got such a laugh from these, and hope that you do too!

Another dog post
These photos by photographer Tanja Brandt are very heartwarming. They show the unlikely friendship between a dog called Ingo and Poldi the owl. Enjoy!

Salvage the spinach!
GrannyJ shared beautiful pictures of her garden yesterday. So many pretty plants! This post is not about beauty, it's more about survival. We have had a few very hot days in a row, and my spinach plants were withering. I tried to protect them from the heat. This was the best I could do. Not pretty, but seems to be working! Hopefully I will have nicer pictures to share soon 😉

The Pleasure of a Garden
When the world wearies and society fails to satisfy, there is always the garden.
— Minnie Aumonier
When we moved here there was not a plant to be seen. I really wanted a nice perennial garden- but they are so expensive to buy and it takes time for them to settle in. Then, If you remember a few years ago I saw a sign for a plant sale and went over to take a look- $200.00 later, I had so many little plants that Mike spent days digging new flower beds. I had no idea what would come up, so we just put everything in somewhere and hoped for the best.
Four summers later and I cannot imagine not having my wonderful garden.
Now don't get me wrong. I don't actually do a lot of work in the garden. Except buy a new plant whenever I see a space needing one. I got 3 new Black Eyed Susan's this spring. Often we have to dig another bed because the plants keep spreading. It is wild and overcrowded, and because I still don't remember all that is in the garden, it is always a new experience. And I absolutely love it.
I think I will turn off all the news for a bit and just enjoy my garden.
| These gorgeous Irises surprised me. I only noticed them when I peeked under some leaves. |
| Even the dandelions have a place in our garden. |
| Finally some lilacs... ! This was a new bed for hostas last summer. I always think of Marie when I start moving hostas around... ;) |
In another few weeks it will be a completely different garden. How great is that, eh?
Bring your coffee, we'll sit outside and chat.
