Sometimes you just have to step away to find that creativity that once drove you. I know that you will find your passion again, and when you do, I hope to see you again soon. I too have been here from

I did grow ginger one year and got quite a few nice pieces from mine. I think you should do well with yours in that sunny window. It's so nice that your interns like working with you and learning how to

Congrats on getting that cold frame emptied and the Herb garden looks great. You must be feeling much better about that. Do you think it is too late to start some Delphinium seeds? I forgot to do them

Well, when I had fish in it a few years back, a Blue Heron came and ate them all. Not only the bird, but raccoons would try and get them. Other than that, all the other critters enjoy drinking and bathing

The females are always the large ones. The males are half her size, usually.

I like both versions of the photos, but that sky-blue water really draws you into the scene. Great shots!

We are certainly having a lot of thunderstorms here lately, too. So many bugs, lol. Your daughter was sweet to fix up the gnome village. At least we are having rain when so many are having serious droughts.

I would love to have a place like that to take a stroll, it looks so lovely.

I've never put cukes in water; that would be beneficial. My beans finished, and I planted a few more in the towers until I ran out of seed. I may do some more beets later today for the greens.

I would have to agree! LOL

I've been hearing that a lot of countries are having a long drought, which is so sad when we are getting rain every few days. I hope you get rain soon, Silvia.

I love your chickens. You are getting ready to plant, and I'm getting ready to start pulling out some of my plants that are finishing. I will get to enjoy watching your progress now.

Everything looks nice and strong; you will have a great harvest.

Your onions look great! They are standing nice and tall; good job!

I need to weed too! This summer's rain has made everything grow wild.

Thank you, I've got another large tomato just waiting to be enjoyed. BLT incoming!

I so agree that BLT really hit the spot.

So sorry you are experiencing so much smoke from the fires. We had that earlier this summer when it drifted down towards us. It is awful for sure! Looks like you have enough raspberries to make jam, lol.

Birds ate all my elderberries this year, little buggers,😁

Thanks, Pam. I have a peach farm two miles from me. I doubt he his organic though.
