On no...he's posting AGAIN!
Aug. 27th, 2011 10:40 amWell, I AM home alone, aren't I!
Random shots from the week:

Due to a freezer mishap while we were off camping, we had to cook up some of the meat that had thawed some. This is a "Full English Breakfast" or a good approximation thereof. I had about 10 of these breakfasts when we went to England in 2004.

The garden this morning. It's a chaos of colors and textures, featuring the wild sunflower "trees" that volunteer every year. The birds love it! All the zucchini I had planted here and there died, but there's one 'Early Girl' tomato that survive and is growing massively, nearly ready to bear. The 8 tomato plants in another part of the garden have been bearing happily and steadily for weeks.

One of my favorite houseplants. This is only the second time it has bloomed in the 4 years I've had it, and it's just the one bloom (there are 3 plants in the one pot). It's usually in our bedroom in a dimmish corner, but I brought it out to celebrate the bloom.

It's lovely!

I think our water might be too alkali to promote the blooms I really think it should have, but it's just a treat when this blooms, like my amaryllis!
Cheers!
