We have had extreme temperatures and high humidity for the majority of our summer, interspersed with lots of rain. My husband has been going out in the mornings, very early to try to keep the Christmas tree farm in some sort of order, but I have been doing my very best to stay inside, concentrating on the soap business and ignoring my poor plants and flowers!
As it turns out - they are all very forgiving and last evening, between the two of us, we finally cleared out the, oh-so-healthy, weeds!
Walking out to the shop this morning and seeing the riotous flowers with butterflies fluttering here and there was a joy - the kind of day when you just want to throw your arms up in the air and let out a whoop just for the joy of living!
Our tomato fences are full - need to be tied up one more time, I think. The marigolds I planted in front of them have reached a mature size and filled in. There is a sunflower at the end of each fence section and the grape arbor behind it all is lush and lovely.
I know this has nothing to do with soap, but I just wanted to share this delicious day with you all!
It is truly rarer than a day in June!
Lookin' good. I tried to convince the dentist to close the office today, and he said his "mirror arm" WAS kind of hurting him...
