I wholeheartedly agree; watching Monarchs transform just amazes me.

That's great! Those scones were so good that I want to try them with cherries and cranberries next.

Aw, baby bunnies are adorable. I hope momma finds them. That was a large caterpillar, close to entering the chrysalis stage. Yay!

I bet you are feeling better about decluttering. I know it is hard to organize and keep things where they belong, lol. It is all worth the effort.

Yes, the pond was bubbling, but it had poured that morning, and I was worried they would not stay on the cage. But, it did stop before they felt to fly off to the flowers.

I love the transformation too, @coinjoe. Thanks for stopping by.

Thank you, Ed. I do love raising the Monarchs every summer. Watching them emerge is always amazing to see, each and every time.

You certainly had a full day hiking. I can see why you enjoyed it so much, it looks so lovely there.

Good for you making jelly in an old t-shirt. My mom always used a pillowcase tied at the end and hung it from the cupboard to drain. It worked great when making crabapple jelly. Love all the flowers, and

Just another day in your life....always a busy one, lol.

Wowza, the garden looks fantastic. Your plants have really taken off, Pam. I had to trim my winter squash as it looked like your pumpkin, lol.

It was so hard to captured him flying so fast. I had to really zoom in with my phone camera.

Yup, that male protects that feeder and chases off any other bird he sees. Thanks for the visit today.

Wow, that's a lot of ice cream in one sitting. I used to enjoy it too, but only a small amount. I have to watch my cholesterol, lol. I bet wanting comfort food over healthy salads is why I was craving

The garden looks amazing; you did a great job tending everything. I can tell you are passionate about growing and eating healthy food for you and Jamie.
