Over the Back Fence

Good Morning There!

Gotta minute?  My job is waiting in the office but I just wanted to chat for a bit.  Here, have a fresh cuppa coffee with some whipped cream (ummm).  I don't usually make it through a whole cup, but sometimes a little something extra encourages me to finish.

Can you believe it is August and schools will be starting back again, soon?  Summer has just flown on by and so did some of the plans I had... like digging up the weeds in the flower bed on the south side of the house so I could get the ground ready for a low-maintenance herb garden.  Fresh herbs smell sooo good. I must confess multiple days upon days of 90 plus temperatures and mugginess have kept me in the house with the air conditioning.  Its hard to encourage ambition when one is melting down into singular pile of nothingness.  What a wuss I am. 

All the peaches are off the tree and the blueberries are finished.  Now, whatever I plan to use will have to be bought.  I know that Fall isn't too far away when I start thinking about getting apples.

Well, what remains of my coffee has cooled and I really must get serious about working. Our visit was so short (sigh).  I hope your day goes well. Bye for now.

  1. Good afternoon. Would love to chat for a bit! and yes, that coffee with whipped cream sounds great. I am having Biscoff Spread and chocolate chips, want some? If you've never had biscoff, it looks like peanut butter but is made from cookies!! Yes, it's very good for you!
    The garden is growing as we speak. It loves this humidity. Tomato plants are bigger than I've ever grown. No ripe ones yet. We have eaten yellow squash and lettuce. Beans are coming right along. I noticed the apples here are even reddening up - where did Summer go? September brings Tunbridge Fair, then frost. I think I'll just revel in these next three weeks of August! I don't know how long these "comments" can be, guess we'll find out.
    I miss you, my friend! Hope you have a good rest of the day.
