Love Hearts Sunday

[Doggedly]

Hi, L.Ann. Enjoy your time at DD38's.

That is so funny, Kittykatt. I have never heard that bit of one-upmanship.

I can completely relate, helia. It's a big deal for me to get out and socialize with friends, no matter how much I like them. I have to have time in between visits to recharge my batteries.

I'm sitting down to a colourful bowl of green beans and tri-coloured tiny tomatoes (red, yellow and green) with my rice. I'm going to take a break to look at recipe ideas for my potatoes and carrots for the slow cooker.

Enjoy your book, L.Ann

Hi, Peaches.

I have not been doing too much, but I think that I have my second wind now.

[Lauralind]

Kittykat the extra dose of water seems to be helping the pots. Some are reviving. The tomatoes will be fine. Do you think the petunias will come back from all the leaves being limp and dull?
Marigolds pansies and I forget the name of the other little ones all took a hit.

What I might do tomorrow though is steal the pansies and lobelia from the round bed. And maybe the coleus will cooperate now. Fill a few spots. Apparently I have the wave petunias in the round bed and they are about to cover over everything else. I rather underestimated their spread.

Trissie our growing season is at least end of August. Most of September unless stuff freezes easily. Most of the stuff in the garden has about a month and a half. I might bring tomatoes and peppers in before frost.

Frenchie I hope you can get help harvesting while you are away. I almost have peas. Raspberries need to be picked. And the dreaded greenhouse. Gotta go see if the beans are ready. They should be if it got any water while we were gone.

In all a successful day.
