Something handmade at last....

A sweet little pattern by Crow's Roost Prims. I didn't put arms on them or the stars that she used but I put a scrap of hair, used oil pencils for color and some old buttons for eyes.

Rene's patterns are easy to make. You can find her here. Happy Thursday y'all.

Got Milkweed?????

I sure do and so do my neighbors because of me. I didn't know until this year how sweet it smells but it sure is prolific. However, it is easy to pull up and the butterflies and bees like it a lot.

PJ bought the slate sign for me at the Trenton Garden Walk. Happy Wednesday evening to all.

Breakfast from the garden...

"My grandmother brings herself a sausage biscuit and the good stuff for me. And a USA Today paper that we are learning to browse. I can identify all the sports pictures (except hockey) and we are going to work on the big map of the USA next to see where all of you live.

I wasn't real sure about the peas. Decided to just eat the inside. Gracie didn't like the pods either but my Aunt Lisa does."

Sunday combos...

Pink bicycle by Cyndi with sunflowers and sign...

Red and orange and pink are a nice combination....


A dirt tier cake will be beautiful soon.... at Trenton Historical House garden

A buggy and some old quilts....
I just wanted to say hello today, June will be gone before we know it, it has been busy. I am going to church this morning. Love to all.

The Strawberry Patch fun.....

Thursday was the first day of Kynda's visit with us. But I don't have a picture of her helping pick. There was some discussion about eating while picking.


Joy helps P. J. with all the chores. She likes green beans and carrots but not strawberries. Rosie likes hostas.

The first time to pick for John Michael.

I have lots of pictures from the Trenton Garden Walk and Proven Winners Gardens and maybe some of us. We had such a good weekend.

And now I will say goodnight, I am off for another garden tour. If you would like to go along click here.

Sassy Art Dolls

These dolls are made by an artist at the Town Peddler; she is just down the aisle from my booth. I did not pose them for this picture, I just passed by and started to laugh.

The haughty ladies with the cigarettes are being given the what-for by the doll in the blue dress. I thought it would give you a laugh.

We are anxiously waiting for Kynda's plane tomorrow, we will be so glad to see her. She couldn't get an Amtrak ticket so she is flying and won't have as much time to read. But we will have more time together. We will be going to the Trenton Quilt and Garden Walk on Saturday and lots of sitting on PJ's porch this weekend. I will have pictures for next week. We may have strawberry shortcake too.

Town Peddler is also having their outdoor mart with vendors. It was really good last year, if you are in the area, stop by.

Earnest Markham

My very first post was "The best clematis have men's names", so when it blooms it is my blogging anniversary.
Happy Saturday to all.
