~Don't say ....fall

 

Oh my ....People are calling FALL..Come on guys..I have sooo many cherry tomatoes to ripen..girls need to see their produce ripen..Let's not use that F word again yet ok?Last time I looked fall is Sept 22nd...

Garlic never disappoints..It's all clean now..EXCEPT....

What's in the heart basket is what I will plant..the largest bulbs of my harvest..below..what we will use this yr..

The thing is I use to tidy it all up..but I met a garlic grower who assured me that the bulbs/cloves.. to be planted..must not be handled until planting..so although I am always so grateful for my home grown garlic and never had any complaints..I am going to give it a try..:) See... lol I can live w/ not spotless..

So come end October..I'll be planting all those dirty girls;)

Fun little flavored vinegars are done..and waiting..

Do you see what I see? I always hesitate to show a gift here..because I don't expect nor need..I love GIVING..little things..and I hate bragging so I keep gifties to myself..

But I wanted to show you how perfect Marie's stitches are.I love to embroider so I can appreciate perfection when I see it as I am not a perfect thimble lol.It's a beautiful tea towel.

So  my Paris people..I can't tell you how many I have painted..they are in 3 watercolor journals .when I finish the 3rd..I think I'll take a break and focus on something else:)

On IG ..I attributed stories to them thanks to a wonderful girl who suggested it to me..Kathy.

All my PP are painted from Geni's photos on IG.

I look at them and think..can I do this one? I've challenged myself many a time and they are far from correct renditions lol.More like caricatures  of her fab people.

This one for instance I named Luther.

(from that Britbox show we like)

And it goes like this..

Luther is  in Paris for the summer..hiatus you know..he relishes the differences..And he's out of his suit and coat.This is the fun incognito Luther.

He hopes no one calls upon him to help solve a crime..Like Lupin;)

The stories and short and sweet and 99% of the time bilingual.Some are longer..depends how involved I am in the character.

That pizza is from a new feed..Tilly alerted me to it..you can find her on IG all reels all poetry in motion~turkuazkitchen.

Take a bite:)

It's called a summer pizza.. this bugged me..we had bought arugula at Costco..it's supposed to have arugula on top which I favor..The arugula was all WET.Buhbye.

A small front lampastandard garden..is awful..I ripped out perennials and stuck in hostas.  In doing so..I found a magical land..of Faes and mushrooms..My gardens are so sunny for the most part but this one faces north west...so does get shade..I guess that's why it's a magical kingdom where mushrooms grew..I have another large side one..I should check under all the gooseneck loosetrife..;)

Have a good week.
