i’ve got the Monday blues

lucky me. it took me 15 minutes to pick the blueberries this morning. it took about 3 minutes for our family of five to eat half. the tomatoes & one strawberry came out of the gardens today too.  

Scottish thistle in Alabama

i planted this Scottish thistle in honor of my Grandmother. i love that the plant has sharp pointed leaves to protect the softness of the flower. a lot like some people i know.

blue hydrangeas lighten things up a bit

these came from just one of my hydrangeas. I have about 10 more hydrangea that haven’t bloomed yet because they are in shade. I am looking forward to having  these throughout my house for a month or more. life seems a little easier with blue flowers in soda bottles throughout my house.
