This is another of my favorites...
Shhh-hhhhh--don't tell anyone but I love them all.
The dark colors seem to grab my eye's more often...at least at first glance.
Then I find myself loving the softer hues...and I LOVE the ruffles.

Not much going on in our world. I hung out laundry today, and messed with some of my sewing. I think I am just going to make a scrappy back for the latest little crumb quilt top. I spent an hour or two digging through the bins picking out bigger bits of fabric and ironing them.
We are starting to have tomatoes from the garden every day. But just two or three per day....but two or three is sure better than none. Yet I am anxiously waiting for the day I can sit down and eat two or three at a setting and there still be tomatoes left for Roger.

From daylily gardens near us
We were heading out for a drive, and passing this daylily place near us...I have always meant to go there but had never taken the time. We passed the place but turned around and came back and turned in the entrance. Boy, did I ever enjoy myself...
Even though it was the middle of the day and hot and humid, we still spent probably two hours there...
I am going to show a few of them over the next day or two, and also some over at my Time Stand Still blog.
I am going to stop at four....for right now. I want to encourage you to click and expand the view.

Now my problem is to figure out which ones I want to start out with. I want to get at least 3 or 4 of them....we have a spot at the end of our garage we could plant them for now. But I would like to put them where we would get to enjoy them.
I had the best time at this place, and we were made to feel welcome to come look any time. Whether we buy anything or not. We plan to take Lorelei up there the next time we can. She will be saying Look, Mamaw, look!

Slow post to nowhere....
"Mother and Child Reunion"
I went to bed before midnight last night...that does not happen once every 6 months...I had planned to past before I went to bed but just could not get my thinking together enough to do one.
And today we ended up getting up, fixing a bit of breakfast, and heading out to a trader's fair/flea market type thing that is not too far from here. It is just a small one and open every other weekend. I did not see anything I could not live without. Roger came home with two or three clamps that he can use in welding.
Right now I am headed down to the basement to look at my sewing...see if I can see anything I want to get started on. I had been wanting to sew all week, but by the time I had time to go down there and stay, I was too weary. Then yesterday had time but wasn't in the mood to sew. Which seems to be typical for me.
The photo above was taken while passing an Amish farm up in Parke County the first week of June.
Other than that, nothing new or interesting happening here. Sometimes that is better than the alternative.
