The heat has made gardening much harder, especially the sunny borders. Still no baking here. We did get a new kitty, her name is Stormy. She had the girls visiting this weekend and they were thrilled with her when she came out from her safe place. She was gentle with them and vs versa. We got thunderstorms and heavy rain last night. Hope it is heading your way.

We, like you have had a really dry summer, and yes, the gardens are showing it. Normally everything is so lush and green. Now brown and although we did have a heavy rain on Friday, it mostly ran off as the ground is so hard. Not complaining however as it is better than the opposite and floods! Your garlic looks amazing! I keep saying I am going to grow some, and then I don't! I guess I just can't get in all that I want to do! I have to settle for the few things, and leave it at that! If I can do a few things well, then I am happy! Your lavender is beautiful along with your petunias! I love the colour purple/mauve. Hope you are enjoying a lovely weekend! xoxoMarie Raynerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407913432222377267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220978989894261816.post-19084210911834644752018-07-14T09:27:24.449-04:002018-07-14T09:27:24.449-04:00Good morning:) Have a lovely weekend..saw that cut...Good morning:) Have a lovely weekend..saw that cute pic of you and your two SILs:)<br />Yes I do that sometimes..but mostly the garlic is just used in dishes..and some garlic confit..<br />Hard to believe we go through 100 bulbs..LOL.<br /><br />Here I plant in October..and harvest mid-end July.Hang to dry ..clean up and there you have it..Until your back is 100% you may want someone to pull it for you.A pitchfork works well for me ..does the work..and leaves the bulb intact..But my back feels all gardening now..prior to my 60's..it hurt maybe the next morning..now..almost 65..the back lingers for days on end.<br />Oy.<br />I should do warm ups.<br /><br />We used to have assigned days..even numbered..odd..no watering.By hand yes..for pots etc.I had to wash my tiny car and felt guilty..after the pollen etc..It's sad to watch things deteriorate isn't it?<br /><br />Have a nice weekend Jane!!La Table De Nanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04358539954508050792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220978989894261816.post-25488246765463735942018-07-14T00:14:39.403-04:002018-07-14T00:14:39.403-04:00The tart has me swooning.

They make the tart look so elegant. <br /><br />Little if any rain here as well. At the lake there are no ordinances. I've only watered my flower beds. We are close enough to the water that the ground is moist. But my pots dry out. I have just a few, as we are going to have a lot of outdoor work done in a few weeks. More on that if I ever get around to posting a blog. Back to watering...in the city we have special hours. 7:00 a.m. until 11:00. And then from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Rather smart as the sun doesn't counteract the effort, and people aren't using much water around that time for dishes, bathing, etc. <br /><br />The garlic looks lovely, I may give it a shot. Do you roast the entire bulbs for spreading on bread and such? Always wanted to try that. As far as curtains in the garage, yes we do here at the lake as the window faces the street and it makes it look like a room rather then a packed (but organized) garage. Before you think we are perfect, the garage in the city should be condemned. The only reason the garage here at the lake is neat is because its filled with boats, bicycles, water toys, inflatables, sporting equipment, and a large refrigerator for beer, wine and water!!<br /><br />Sending love across the miles, dear Monique.<br /><br />Jane xBlondie's Journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988377413260331618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220978989894261816.post-20771980950866875542018-07-13T18:38:00.027-04:002018-07-13T18:38:00.027-04:00No, I just read the Queen hates garlic and doesn&#...No, I just read the Queen hates garlic and doesn't allow it at meals.

All the petunia varieties are doing so well this year! They must love the heat. Dorie's book is also one of my favorites. I'm pretty sure I've made her pastry cream also. What a gorgeous tart with the fig and blueberry garni! My garlic will not get such a lovely place to hang in our garage. It will be surrounded by tools, our covered Christmas tree, and yard equipment :) Wish mine were larger this year, only got about 36 teeny bulbs this morning.
