One of my four legged friends loves adventuring oh the stories she could tell... she followed me to the cowshed the other morning so I took her back home again on the bike and 20 minutes later she was back again! <br />I have a new to me vege in my garden... it's called a Yacon (google it) if you are interested I can give you some corms when I have harvested them...<br />As for the baking... I can definitely testify your baking is delish too, sounds like it has been passed down from mother to daughter;O)Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14902099344649780418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802941287301708633.post-18746252478225662582017-01-14T11:20:08.051+13:002017-01-14T11:20:08.051+13:00I just love getting those gift vouchers from frien...I just love getting those gift vouchers from friends because you can get what you really crave for. lol Your veges look yummy and that juice has done a good job too. I have never been very successful with Maidenhair fern but I would consider having another go at them as they are so pretty. I loved the Holly Hobbie print too, very sweet. Your furry friends look all snuggly there. Have a great night.xx<br />Anitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12136895163590757519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802941287301708633.post-58782956871662625822017-01-14T07:32:33.595+13:002017-01-14T07:32:33.595+13:00Lovely to see what you are up to Julie - and lovel...Lovely to see what you are up to Julie - and lovely little snippets to see in this post.

Lol!! Love the maidenhair fern, I haven't had much luck keeping them alive sadly. Love a vase of cut flowers, the girls who came over to sew last week brought me two bunches of roses, they are beautiful and we have a lily flowering in the garden, it is orange and red, but the stems get long and they fall over, so that is when I pick them and they come inside, they are lasting really well too. Hope hubby got the machinery home successfully.kiwikidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02267387525703999696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802941287301708633.post-31512812320218627472017-01-11T09:56:49.134+13:002017-01-11T09:56:49.134+13:00As usual.........your home is warm and welcoming a...As usual.........your home is warm and welcoming and calling to me! "come to Julie's for a cuppa and a natter".......I used to have a beautiful maidenhair fern when i was a kid-teenager, but one of my nieces got in pivy with me oneday when i wouldn't let her come out with me and my friends,so she gave my fern a drink of nail polish remover........that beautiful fern died! Hollyhobby takes me back too, such a sweet symbol. your garden sure is looking great, i need some of that wormwee here, things are pretty dry.

Your spruced up corners look a treat. A vase of flowers is always perfect. Love the Maiden Hair Fern; it looks perfect in the duck planter sitting on those lovely polka dot cases. I did chuckle when you mentioned your mum's friend 'gift' to you. I grimace when someone says "I have some fabric and stuff I was throwing out, but thought you would like them!!!!". I too, LOVE Holly Hobbie. Gorgeous print and it now looks perfect made up as a pretty cushion surrounded by all that sweet lace. I must say your veggie patch is looking robust and healthy. My favourite are the beets. They taste delicious and their gorgeous colour always makes me smile. Have the most wonderful day, lovely Julie!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14782099930159071920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802941287301708633.post-8652546138814155432017-01-10T22:52:18.370+13:002017-01-10T22:52:18.370+13:00Firstly...Hail to the 'worm juice'...!
Yo...Firstly...Hail to the 'worm juice'...! <br />Your veggies look lovely, and l'm very <br />fond of beetroot! <br />I'm afraid l don't grow anything, except <br />grass..! :). As l'm given loads of things <br />from neighbours/friends who do grow things <br />on allotments and gardens! So, l'm quite <br />lucky really! :).<br /><br />And, l love Holly Hobbie...She looks grand, <br />and, looks lovely on the cushion, often wonder<br />what she looks like, but, l think that's the <br />best bit...wondering! <br /><br />And, plants, l have plants ALL over my home, <br />never cut flowers, l always feel to cut a flower <br />is cruel...and cuts it's life in half, out in <br />the garden, hedgerows etc...that's where they belong. <br />But, l do have plants that flower indoors! <br />Lesson taught by life....<br />"Every flower is a soul, blossoming in nature, please <br />don't take their life by plucking them". <br /><br />And Julie...You always leave the best till last...<br />Their probably very tired after helping you with<br />your lovely post...Bless them...! Purrfect! xxWILLIE...! =(^..^)=https://www.blogger.com/profile/14862273578655424772noreply@blogger.com
