Flowers and Things

It's very busy but we're catching up a bit lately, sort of.

Yesterday we got the now empty onion beds ready for planting and today the summer squash, eggplant, melon, and pumpkin seeds will go in. There are also additional beds for either popcorn or sunflowers, or both.

We had to buy pepper transplants this year; for some reason that bed had almost complete germination failure. The seeds were from a variety of reliable sources, and all types grown here previously, planted at the proper time in the correct fashion .This failure is clearly George Bush's Fault.. At any rate, we should have peppers soon.

I really like flowers, there just isn't much time for them. Still, here's a couple of arrangements made from cuttings from the yard-they'll get better as more blooms become available, and yes, I need a better vase, it's on the list. There's no catnip in these but this little cross eyed kitty is convinced its there, somewhere (she truly is cross eyed):
