I am way overdue on blogging! Our late August was a blur of fun activities, and September began with school and sports galore and hasn't slowed down yet! Let me try to catch up a bit by posting some of our August pictures.
 |
A swallowtail caterpillar. We had 9 larvae on one parsley plant on our deck this year! They were so fun to watch every day! I know I have a lot more pics of these guys, later in August, but here's one who just molted. |
 |
Our deck planters. Usually I plant tried-and-true things like impatiens or begonias in them. But this year, I tried new, weird/crazy annuals in them, and they turned out great! I love them! |
 |
Big deck planters, overflowing with crazy flowers! |
 |
Dahlia patch by the garage at the front of the house. |
 |
Front corner of Sarah garden. The spider flowers are a real star! |
 |
Volunteer sunflowers at the front of our yard. Many walkers and neighbors comment on them! |
 |
Planter with weird Coleus varieties. |
 |
Pots on the front porch. |
 |
Small garden by the front door. |
 |
Our home veggie garden. |
 |
Veggies galore! I always try to space things out, and it always turns out like a jungle anyways! |
 |
We have had a constant stream of cut flowers since early August. |
 |
Random bloody tooth hole. |
 |
Garden harvest from our community garden plot |
 |
Normal zucchini |
 |
This is what our kitchen window ledge has looked like since early August! |
 |
More tomatoes. |
 |
And more tomatoes!! |
 |
More flowers. We planted a few zinnia varieties from seed and have fallen in love with them! |
 |
More tomatoes! Canning pictures to come, I'm sure. We made many batches of salsa this year, in addition to eating tomatoes every day. |
