Zinnias, Zinnias, and Again I Shout, Zinnias!



Things I have recently loved:
____________

My zany extended family; the youngest member caressing the oldest, my lovely Grandpa.
____________
Ignoring daily responsibilities to read the last Harry Potter.

Zinnias, more than I can pick. . .

__________
Fresh tomatoes, delightful varieties right from our garden.

___________
Elspeth riding atop golden retriever Chester, in Texas.
_______________
Merry loving her new sweet cousin, Liliana Cecilia.
__________
Roast chicken with rosemary from our garden.

Zucchinis that appear with alarming frequency; carrots from a friend's friends raised bed; delectable peaches from Farmer's Market.
The hills here, soft and green; a garden in almost every backyard.
________

Perennial hibiscus blooms like saucers, like the eyes of some wonderful animal.
_____________

The McVities dear Kara brought back from Manchester, England.
__________
Hot and wonderful summer!
