Today's diary block is based on a flower in my garden called gompherna or globe amaranth. It is such a prolific flower and comes in a bunch of different colors too. I like the needle like leaves, it is very different.
This is about 4 plants all mushed together for a nice impact. I love how the look next to my black eyed Susans. They look like polka dots and I do think some people call this plant by that name. They can also be cut and air dried.
It is amazing what a little drop in humidity will do to a person! I was at home waiting for a plumber to show up and decided to make some tomato sauce from the tomatoes in my garden. I also picked fresh basil and oregano........
I made home made croutons from some leftover stale bread......
banana bread................
I picked fresh flowers for the counter. Don't you love the blue bucket against the yellow flowers? I was Suzy Homemaker on steroids!! Don't worry it won't last....
