Lagniappe: Martini Walk Around The Property With Mr. Moon


Sky and trees and light.

Strange and interesting wasp nest on the old stable doorway.


The only three teenagers who didn't figure out how to go to roost in the hen house. We gently and lovingly carried them in.


The garden.

A tiny baby squash.

A tiny baby tomato. 

What a sweet Friday night date with my love.

  1. Mary dearest-your growing season is just ridiculous. My lettuce is the size of a fingernail and tomatoes, ha! Not even in the ground.

    So sweet to stroll with a cocktail and your loving man.

    1. Well, this is Florida. And when you're getting gorgeous fat juicy tomatoes ours will be dead from leaf curl and pest damage. Trust me.
      It was a sweet evening.

  4. Such a wonderful post. I hope your teen age chickens wise up. They could take a lesson from your garden.

    1. They are. I love this stage when they just look sort of like miniature chickens.

    1. Aren't they?
      I cannot figure out that wasp thing. I guess mud daubers had to have made it but I can't find anything on the internet that looks like it.

  9. Oh my gosh, I can't believe your garden is already that advanced. My tomato plants are about 2 inches tall and we can't put them outside until mid-May because we can very often get frost until then. And I'm glad you had a lovely evening with your hubbie.

    1. Well, the heat and critters will kill my tomatoes before yours even get started good so don't be too envious. North Florida really isn't the best place to grow them.

    1. "Impeccable" is the word! Lord. He even puts the stabby labels in the individual pots in the same place. Facing the right way. He's just a little OCD when it comes to things like that.
