Kitten alert!

Here's little miss Pesto...and what a hellion she is! So far she's getting along pretty well with the other cats though she is turning out to be even more alpha than Cleo. Cleo is actually a little afraid of her. Bindi has accepted her presence but doesn't want her to get too close and Hannah has no idea what's going on. Pesto stalks Daisy, naturally. Poor Daisy....she gets no respect.

I have a new Facebook account if you're interested in tracking the ever more fascinating aspects of my life. Heh.

Garden update

So here are some garden update pics....the first if of my perennial herb and strawberry patch. It's fun to be able to walk down the path, lean over and pick a strawberry, flick off the slug or snail attached to it, maybe walk it inside and wash it before eating it. Maybe most certainly do that.....

This is how we're looking mid-summer. This overflowing box in the front was supposed to be all lemon cucumber. I do have those but I also have acorn squash popping up in there and I KNOW I didn't put in squash seed. In the front yard, where I did put in acorn squash seed, I'm getting squash but it's not acorn.
This was the drab and dreary countenance of my garden just a few short months ago. Yeah for summer!
