The English lavender is ready to harvest! It's the most fragrant thing in my house. In fact, I can smell it as I list and look at the photos I am posting.
But I have decided to dry this lavender. I will rubber band it and hang it upside down. When dry, I will shake and brush the buds off for later use. English lavender is good for culinary purposes too.
I also picked some wild daisies and cornflowers at my parent's farm in Wisconsin. I was there to wish my father a Happy Father's Day. Wishing all fathers a blessed day.
My mother gave me the most adorable little succulent planter. She got it at the Lake Geneva, WI farmer's market. The lady who made it makes planters out of children's shoes. My mother also has a little boy's suede hiking boot planter. I don't have a photo of that. But I love my new Mary Jane planter.
I know, I know....more food photos. I am having so much fun with the colors in my garden that it's really hard to not post the photos.
My go-to snack/meal lately. So delicious with herbed cream cheese, shallots, snipped herbs, cucumbers, and smoked salmon. Yum.
Oh, and don't forget dessert!
