The warmth of summer is upon us and the herbs are very happy about that. I am always torn when the lavender is ready for harvest because it is always full of honeybees and bumblebees working so hard for the nectar. They just buzz at me in disgust as I chop, chop, chop away feeling guilty; but I always leave some behind for them.
We have been outdoors everyday, I find the heat and humidity to be a bit painful, but Fauna is finding creative and unique ways to stay cool- today a towel drenched in cold water did the trick.
We did a science experiment involving a sock and seeds. The specifics on that is to come.
Araina got out the permanent markers and dressed up my clothespins to make me smile while I hung the clothes to dry.
Fauna has been very busy making a new set of pet rocks.
Lots of foam painting going on too.
And the garden is blooming merrily. Here’s my bouquet for Friday’s Flowers- lavender, fairy roses, lime mint, and yarrow placed in an old shaving mug.
Have a great weekend!
“That’s all.”
