Flowers and pie......




I finally went shopping for plants for my pots.  I didn't want to do them before I went to NC so I had to hope there would be some plants left.  This is my mirror image pots that go in front of my garage.

I bought some of the plants on Friday at a nursery and then on Sat. I found some at half price at Ace Hdwe.  I decided to fill every pot until I ran out of potting soil. 
There are 3 pots that have Gerbera Daisies and they will be sitting out in my back garden for a little color.  It is going to take a long time to clear the weeds and create a sunny garden.
I have had hostas in pots on the porch since early May.  I had to move a few to make room for pots with flowers.
My cacti are on the 2 levels of the table and on the porch beside it.  I will keep moving them around so the same ones aren't in full sun every morning.  I used to have a tree shading the porch so I'll have to see how it goes this year.
I have placed a couple hostas in pots in bare spots to the left of the front porch.
I have a friend and neighbor that I share plants and fabric with and she wanted to know what she could give me.  She wondered if I would like some rhubarb.  I told her I'd like a strawberry rhubarb pie (wasn't that bold of me?), not knowing that her oven was not working.  Yesterday she baked one for her dad for Father's Day and one for me, and I think one for herself in her mother's oven.
It was still warm when she delivered it to me and this is what it looked like 5 minutes after she left.  Yum!!  It was SO good!!
I asked my sister-in-law if she could get her 2 grandsons to stop over at my house so I could give them graduation gifts.  They surprised me and came yesterday.  I gave them these quilts that I made last Dec.
