~Hellebores & Our Garden Shed ~

I love hellebores. 
Stan and I went to La Costa Nursery in San Diego County 
and bought some new plants for our garden!
Hellebores are easy to grow and can live for decades. 
They're deer proof and drought tolerant!
This one is called,
~HGC Love Bug~


This hellebores has longer stems.
~Penny's Pink~
Can't wait to plant them!
I made some new wreaths for the garden shed.

I'm going to add fresh flowers
 from our garden soon to the wreaths!!
Our flower seeds from 
Floret Flower Farm
are getting bigger everyday!!
 Basil plants happily growing in a tomato can!
I made parmesan heart crisps to add to a salad!
We made fried rice with peas and mushrooms for dinner.
Also
Ina Garten's recipe 
Iced Prosecco with fruit for dessert with

Ending to a wonderful day!!
We're leaving tomorrow for 
Seattle, Washington's
I'll be sharing on Instagram!

~Love Lavender~


Who doesn't love Lavender!
The scent is so relaxing and fresh,
and
 I love the color purple!
I have placed it,
here and there in the house.
I can't get enough of the smell.



Some new purple Italian appetizer plates,
I found on a shopping day in Little Italy.

A lavender wreath hanging in our entryway!
Just got these pretty lavender edible papers from 
Can't wait to make lavender sugar cookies!
I ordered 
The Lavender Cookbook
by Sharon Shipley
from Amazon. 
There's lots of delicious recipes inside. 
Lavender always makes me smile!!
