The flowers are doing well, especially hydrangeas, which were disappointing last year. We'll see if we can keep the deer away from them.

My "live-in gardener" is indeed permissive even more so. Sometimes I have to get out there and pull a few things out and do a bit of clean up suggestions.<br /><br />Thanks for the tour of your garden. I also love the form of iris compared to the bearded ones, which we removed. Ahhh, roses, I just love them. Now you have inspired me to make a gazpacho soon. I think I will take it to an upcoming women's gathering along with some cripy bread.

Did you hear people complaining about how "hot" it was? Did they not remember our winter and spring? And now rain again - but soon sunshine I hear (I hope). Love the local strawberries too - the farmers here will have them available any time soon - too many deer that wander through our yard, often in small herds, for me to have any strawberries left for us, if I had planted some - so we'll watch the deer and eat the local berries. Your flowers are just lovely - especially the roses - I adore roses - and so do our deer. Happy weekend - on clear days we can see your island from the top of our hill. I'll wave next time we see it.JoAnn ( Scene Through My Eyes)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12621061028973446378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-84852265693587614352017-06-02T07:07:54.823-07:002017-06-02T07:07:54.823-07:00The soup sounds soooo good!
