Hey Little Guy, Nice Antennae!

Whoa! You have to admire that rack on such a little bug. Anybody know what kind of bug it is?

Yesterday my mother-in-law gave me some heuchra.
I don't know where I am going to plant it yet.

I was outside this morning removing all kinds of stuff from the rockwall garden. I am trying to get rid of all the flowers back there except for the spring bloomers--tulips, etc. The rest of the year, I just want foliage plants. This loosestrife is a nice plant back there. Lots of color even when it's not in flower. I split this one in half this morning so I now have two of them.


It's discouraging trying to keep the flowers out of that area. I got fed up with digging and went for the Roundup. I sprayed it in so many areas. I can only imagine what a mess I will have in about 10 days.

After working outside for a couple of hours, I came in to make a veggie pizza to take to an Independence Day BBQ later this afternoon. (Pea, I will save that recipe you gave me for our Labor Day event. I didn't read my comments until last night and I had already bought all the ingredients for this pizza thing.)

And let me tell you, there are a LOT of ingredients to dice. Carrots, celery, broccoli, cauliflower, radishes, green pepper, yellow pepper....SHOOT! I just realized I forgot the Vidalia onions!

Oh, well, too late now. I guess I could go out on the deck and get a few chives to add for onion flavor.
It's quite a colorful appetizer.

I hope you all have a great holiday.

This will be my last post until Sunday because I am off for a little adventure.

I will probably have blog withdrawal symptoms!
