So long...

Time to say good bye...since opening the diner my posts on this blog have become very infrequent and boring. I've really enjoyed myself and learned so many useful things by reading your blogs, it's been great!
've met some wonderful people and I'll try my best to follow your blogs. Take care and I wish you all the best.

That's all folks.

Margaret

Today's lunch...

...yellow cherry tomato, chopped basil, sliced cucumber, from my veggie garden, and handmade, by my sister Liz, soft, milky white, and decadent mozzarella, sprinkled with salt and pepper and drizzled with olive oil...pinch me I think I'm dreaming...

Blackberry Festival

The Powell River Blackberry Festival street party...full of music for Mia who loves to dance...

Colorful displays and people....

Thousands of people....

And a beautiful sunset to...

There were lots of food vendors and I ate my way down the street....sorry no pictures, I was eating...

Around the house

Literally around the house...Art is digging up our old and cracked cement walkway and replacing it with "salt and pepper" rock. Love it...love it...love it! But deep down I hope we are not making a huge mistake...time will tell.

I love the look...I just hope the weeds keep out!

It's all about the birds and the bees...

However birds are out of the question, I can't seem to focus my camera and take a picture before they fly off...bees on the other hand are a little slower and easier for me to photograph but it's still a work in progress....

 This bee flew away...much slower than a bird...and it still came out a little blurry...

As some of you may already know...I love hollyhocks....when I posted about my hollyhocks last year my blogger friend Mel commented that she hated them...I didn't understand how someone could hate these tall beauties, well now I do. If you don't cut them down before the flower goes to seed you will have hollyhocks everywhere, I'm not KIDDING, they are EVERYWHERE...enough said!

Mel I should have listened...

Globe Thistles

I'm not the only one to love a Thistle, bees love them to...

A toasty pot...

Toasty and warm in an empty pot....
