Yesterday it was announced in our local community newspaper that my garden has won first place in our village’s annual Most Beautiful Garden Contest. I know I’ve already shared many photos of my garden with you this year so I promise to just post these few more.
Gardening has been challenging this summer with the record heat, hungry deer, lack of rain, and a back problem which recently has kept me out of the garden as well as the kitchen. But I am feeling much better, and this news has given me just the lift I need to get cooking again …. gotta do something with all that mint growing in the urn in the bottom photo!
