Sunday is a great day for resting and reflecting...but it wasn't one of those days around here...well not for the two tallest (still) two-leggeds...
...it was a 'doings' day of gardening,
cooking and house maintenance and the odd bit of animal husbandry thrown
in for good measure...although I usually find digging horse poo into a garden bed quite meditative...
...after
yesterday's fairly intense heat the garden was definitely a MUCH nicer place to
inhabit today...

| Summer bounty |
...flower-picking for inside became a moment to ponder - these dahlias are really great value...I think I may have paid $6 for each little bundle of dahlia tubers - and each plant has flourished and generously provided me with vase after vase of gorgeous bright blooms throughout Summer and next year very likely there will be even more - as the tubers multiply - how good is that?! I dare you to buy yourself a few and enjoy them for years to come..
