My Outdoor Space

My reading corner

This is how my patio looks at the end of August. Everything is still growing, especially the Morning Glories and Gourds. And of course my vegetables and herbs.

* * *

Still very hot here; lots of sunshine (I like that).

* * *

But Labor Day is coming soon, officially the end of summer.

* * *

Any plans for the long weekend?

* * *

Tomorrow is the first day back for College students here...

Have a good week!...See you later!

My Flower Garden

I love summer flowers, they make me happy. All these pics are from my flower garden. I spend quite a bit of time there every day, dead heading, fertilizing, and watering, especially right now with it being so hot and humid, my flowers are asking for lots of water.

* * *

Every year I say to myself, that I will plant less flowers in the spring, but I always end up with more.

* * *

So now you know where I spend a lot of my free time.

* * *

Do you have any summer hobbies?

I just picked up Elizabeth Berg's new book and can't wait to start reading. I love all her books, she is such a wonderful author.

Have a great week!...See ya!

A little Inspiration...

I love these little quotes, how true they are. I do not know the author, but they are wonderful.

I found a great food blog Babaras Spielwiese. Easy recipes and it all looks very delicious, yummy!

How was your weekend?...We did not do much, stayed home and relaxed. The humidity is still very high and the temps are in the 90's. We watched a great movie "My life in ruins", a romantic little comedy, just right for summer and I like Nia Vardalos.

Have a beautiful week!

See you next time!

Summer in Indiana

Indiana summers are full of sunshine, hot and very humid. Many times the humidity is higher than the temperature. Out in the country you will see huge never ending corn and soybean fields.

What do you like to do in summer?

***

I am reading the book: "Eat, Pray, Love" right now and I am enjoying it. Looking forward to seeing the movie.

Today is my last Monday off, so that means the end of my 3-day weekends.

Got to go, have to cut the basil and make some pesto.

Have a good week!
