Your flowers are all so pretty and they must love your place since so many of them seem to wander in from nowhere and take up residence. Love the story about the iceberg lettuce you should definitely plan on growing more next year.<br />bon weekend<br />MaggieMaggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16778709902157945708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6460244051990142578.post-51023050687749140782016-06-24T13:07:19.181-06:002016-06-24T13:07:19.181-06:00That lettuce does look sweet and crunchy!

I grow a bit of leafy lettuce in a huge pot and its perfect mixed with some store bought romaine or iceberg. No garden beds for me any more...no time. Sniff...<br /><br />I adore peonies, I had them at the lake until we had some outdoor renovations and they were lost---long story. I used to cut them and bring them indoors. I'd let the water evaporate and then they dried and lasted so nicely for months. <br /><br />It has been quite hot here, too. Tonight we had several tornados move through our area and right into downtown Chicago which is rare. Praying for peacefulness and sun tomorrow.<br /><br />Jane <br />Blondie's Journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988377413260331618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6460244051990142578.post-35611024740841512972016-06-22T10:18:39.052-06:002016-06-22T10:18:39.052-06:00I know!

Was not that the most delicious salad you ever had? Such fun this surprising iceberg lettuce from own garden. These Begonias bring back sweet memories to me, my grandmother had them in a round bed in her frontgarden, in winter she stored the tubers on the attic floor. I have had them sometimes but I'm not fond of them.Janneke https://www.blogger.com/profile/11056916431881916066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6460244051990142578.post-22724305548615396972016-06-21T20:28:18.608-06:002016-06-21T20:28:18.608-06:00How cool, head lettuce out of the garden.

The vase is perfect. Enjoyed seeing your pretty dining room too. Stay cool, is suppose to be 100 here in St Louis tomorrow YUCK!Ann@A Sentimental Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15521312649204476924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6460244051990142578.post-60999522300975731032016-06-21T16:01:17.118-06:002016-06-21T16:01:17.118-06:00Hi Ann, so nice to catch up with you!

Like everyone else will probably write, I've backed off from blogging somewhat too. <br />Gorgeous flowers and lots of peonies for vases inside, I just wish they'd last longer. I've had blue potatoes and we can often buy a small bag with different coloured varieties at the grocery store.<br />How serendipitous for a head lettuce to show up, a nice surprise and a tasty salad.<br />The farmers around here can get into a dither when it's haying time and I know they may go around and help each other. Poor Pop, softened hay cubes? Much like an older dog I suppose that feels better with canned food than kibble.<br />Happy Gardening!Judith @ Lavender Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16361061491506137380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6460244051990142578.post-39754498030087278762016-06-21T06:33:18.169-06:002016-06-21T06:33:18.169-06:00Hello, happy summer.
