All Things Food Edition
I find it impossible to believe that July is almost over. Where has the summer gone? Our weather has been so crazy it’s hard to tell what season we are even in, but it feels like fall here. For me fall is when I like to find new recipes and canning methods. There’s nothing better than a…
Pink Blooms
It seems like I’ve had a lot of flower posts lately but I guess that’s what’s happening this time of year. Flowers blooming, bees buzzing, gardens producing, and summer sun. My mission was to wander around my garden and the guest homes garden and take some photos. I noticed everything blooming right now was pink,…
Garden Vegetables
I’m watching my 95 year old Grama and Aunts farm this week. They are traveling west so I am feeding the critters and picking from the garden. My Aunt used the straw bale method to garden this year and her veggies are producing much sooner than mine. She fertilized the bales in the spring, bringing…
Decorating with Wildflowers
Our fields are littered with wildflowers this time of year and it makes it so convenient to have blooms to decorate with. As hubby and I drove up the driveway I noticed the Wild Bee Balm was blooming, so you guessed it I rummaged through my purse and found my garden nippers and did a…

Birdhouse Rescue
I’m in love with my new/old birdhouse. I happened to rescue it from our guest house. If you remember this winter our guest house had a lot of damage due to harsh winter, no electricity, and water damage. Well finally the insurance adjuster has been to the house, a claim was filed and the place is under…
Summer Deck Done in Buffalo Check

Giant Silk Moth {Cyclops Polyphemus}
I went outside Saturday morning to take some instagram pics of the first cosmo blooming in my cut flower garden and as I was walking into the house I noticed this Giant Silk Moth on our deck. I was quite startled I have never seen one before and I was taken back by it’s size. It’s…
Caught in the Act
I’ve been wondering why I have never seen a bird in my new DIY birdbath….well now I know why. While talking on the phone with my friend Claudia the other day I mentioned I hadn’t seen any birds bathing, she said it would take some time but once they found it they would continue to…
Red, White, and Blue Sitting Area
Iv’e recovered from the graduation party and have everything back in order again. I’m happy to say my white slipcovers came through the ordeal without a stain or ice cream spill. When I swapped them over before the party I thought to myself….this may be a big mistake, but I did it anyway. The white…
Daisy Table Makeover
We have had this iron table in our family for years and years. It seems to travel around from parents to cousins and aunt and uncles. Whoever is in need of a table at the moment gets it. It has been at my house for about 10 years now. I have covered the cushions several…
