Sew Happy

As you may know, since I bought this new sewing machine, I've been a sewing mad-woman. I've been working on many things but one of which I am very proud are the new pillows for my couches. Mom's wanted to see them for a while, so check them out. (They look pretty professional, don't you think?)

Fast Approaching Adolescence

After a lifetime of tending, Brayle & Hunter are entering their adolecent years. It's time to do the neighborhood fun things going to the movies, park & such with friends. Fixing lunch, chores and checking in with Mom & Dad keep them happy.

They've outgrown the free entertainment I've hauled them to & it's boring. An excursion to the Museum of Natural History and Liberty Park was our latest outing.
What can I say, I'm out of ideas. Perhaps our visiting grand children will have more fun than a barrel of freebies. Maybe moving to another state will change all that. Time will tell.

Peas Picking Pot

Miraculously we planted peas at the perfect time this year out in our park strip sometime between March and April 15. Cool weather lovers, they were blooming by May 3rd. We began picking the green pods both sugar snap & sweet peas by June 12th.

They provided a healthy treat for three straight weeks both at work and home. Snack food move over for a little organic Vitamin A. I pulled the vines out on July 5th. Just in time for the neighbor's plants to start yielding. Thanks for the spring rains I rarely had to water them. They are just a pile of rabbit food now.

How are your gardens growing?
