I Like Thursday #146


It's time for a happy and uplifting post. Please visit LeeAnna over at Not Afraid of Color to link up with more like minded posts. We had a little rain one afternoon and I noticed everything looked orange outside after the storm was over.  I ran out and took a picture of the sky. It's so pretty! It was very striking to see.


We had a little visitor in our yard a few days ago. We have a little marsh in the woods behind our house. I have a feeling that's what this little guy was looking for! I'm not sure where he ended up. I know he didn't go near the street. I kept looking out for him.


This is our little vegetable garden. My husband wanted to try a few different vegetables this year. He has potatoes in there as well as eggplant and tomatoes. He's still adding to it. A wood chuck had found it and ate quite a few of our plants. My husband added more wire netting around it. I hope it works!


I just finished this book and absolutely loved it! It's about a sewing circle during World War II in England. They didn't start off reworking wedding dresses but they were in short supply during the war and there were lots of brides! The idea took off and became quite popular. I know that part was based on a true story. I love the fictional characters and hated to see this book end!

Enjoy the long weekend and have a Happy 4th of July!

  2. That sky is amazing. I'm trying out eggplant this year, too! I never knew the leaves were so fuzzy (nor that the blooms were purple). Good luck with your garden!
