i bet youre growing the kale for the hens, arent you? i love the speckled lettuce is that the valentine mesculan mix? i just put my seeds of that in. love all your photos -and your life! well done dani.
kale is great in chicken soup, btw. you probably know that.
Dani - How is Ollie with the chickens? Our puppy has started going cujo on them and I can't let her near them. I know it's something I have to nip in the bud ASAP and it's not in a Lab's naturer to be mean, so I know it's just growing pains, but... ugh for right now! What did you do (are you doing) will Ollie to make sure he doesn't chase them and hurt them?
Kate, can I introduce your puppy to my evil Hamster Bob? lol. (kidding)....kinda
We've been pretty lucky so far with Ollie. He forgets every once in a while and will give chase, but that's about it. I still keep a close eye on him though just in case.
Chickens! I want chickens. *sigh* I live in the city too much of time, that's obvious. Such beautiful colors in your garden and I love the picture of your daughter surrounded by all that lush beauty.
Yum, yum, yum! Lookit all the salad greens, spinach and kale! How does Ollie stay so white when he's always in the garden?!
ReplyDeleteDiva, lots and lots of baths. hehe.
ReplyDeleteYesterday was his appt. with the groomer, so he was extra, extra clean when I took his picture.
I looked up "fluffy" in the dictionary and found your dog!
ReplyDeleteHe's amazing.
So are your gardening skills!
My garden wants to be just like yours when it grows up! Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWait...those chickens are on the ground? I thought they liked higher altitudes?
ReplyDeleteThe texture and colors visible in your photos are incredible! Yum!
ReplyDeleteFC, thank you sweet buddy. :)
ReplyDeleteScMomma, y'all are off to such a great start!
Shamy, *snort* Cotton is under strict orders now. NO GALLIVANTING ON THY NEIGHBORS ROOF!
Erin, spring gardens are always my favorite. :)
Just go ahead and pack a bag for Elizabeth and Ollie I'll be right over to pick them up....TOO CUTE!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you've got some help in the garden. Lots of great looking textures and colors, as well as yummy food.

I saw your blog over at Darla's and had to stop by. I have just moved to Fl and am learning how to garden in the sand! I'm thinking lots of pots. lol
ReplyDeleteYes, your dog is beautiful.
Darla, they're all yours!!! Does that make me a bad mommy? lol
ReplyDeleteSusan, yep, they are good little helpers. :)
Chickory, next time I do soup, I'm gonna add some kale like you suggested. Sounds yummy.
The lettuce is called Forellenschluss or speckled trout. It's my favorite of the year.
SAS, welcome to the sunshine state. :) Best thing to do is get yah some raised beds. It really is the best way to go around here.
Not at all...I have those moments too!
