Any time we read, he picks that one. He claims that the main character is a girl. He also claims that the trucks really did grow up into real trucks. I guess I'll let him enjoy being a kid and stop insisting that trucks don't grow. Heather We got it from the library, and my (almost)4 year old boy LOVES it. Any time we read, he picks that one.

We're struggling here with ours. The heat is absolutely killing our flowers and with how high our water bill was last month due to our attempts at watering I'm just not sure we'll make it through the hottest summer months yet to come. I guess I'll just have to continue admiring yours! :) Oh Natasha–you’re flowers are absolutely gorgeous! We’re struggling here with ours.

I hate gardening (I even kill the lucky bamboo in my house). I always admire people that do it. I was born with a brown thumb...oh that, and I'm allergic to just about everything! hehe! Very pretty though! Looks like your blog is back up. I didn't have any problems loading it! How pretty! Will you come to my house and do that in my yard?

It also reminded me that Alice Walker has a beautiful essay, "In Search of Our Mother's Gardens." For many women of the past, the garden was the only work of art their culture allowed them. And they made the most of it. Since I write about women who work on the land, I enjoyed this post.

Our plant gets cut back often for our food dishes and never has this many large pretty flowers. Are those chives in the second pic?

Send the extras my way! Charlotte - Loved getting rid of that grass. Got rid of a 1/4 of it in the backyard as well. My rule: If you only walk on it to mow it, then rip it out! Kathy - Thanks! I wouldn't know what to do with Southern yards though. Melissa – Zucchini is my favorite garden vegetable. Send the extras my way!
