I have been dreaming of a vintage bicycle with a flower basket, ever since I saw that very first one years ago. I am a huge fan of whoever that first person was to use a bicycle for yard art? Finally . . . . . . . .  

A basket that can be changed out seasonally was filled with vinca, sweet potato vine and cypress vine. I have boards on Pinterest and Hometalk of the type of bicycles I admire, I would love for you to check out!

What a yummy way to enjoy fresh summer peaches. My family loves this cobbler.

Let's Eat

Fresh Peach Cobbler Recipe
3 cans crescent rolls
6-8 fresh peaches, peeled and sliced
1 cup butter
2 cups sugar
1 can Sprite
1 tsp. cinnamon

Grease 9" x 12" pan
Place 1 1/2 cans of crescent rolls on the bottom of pan
Place peaches on top of bottom layer of crescent rolls
Shake cinnamon on top of peaches 
Melt butter and mix with sugar, heat mixture in microwave for 2 minutes
Pour 1/2 of the butter/sugar mixture on layer of peaches
Place the other 1 1/2 cans of crescents on the top of the last layer
Pour the rest of the butter/sugar mixture on the last layer of crescents (make sure all of the crescents are covered with mixture)
Pour can of Sprite over all the mixture (the mixture will be soupy and I always take precautions for the possibility that the cobbler may run over the edge while baking

Bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes or until center is bubbling. I do put a loose piece of foil on top of the cobbler until about the last 20 minutes, that way the cobbler doesn't get so brown. Serves 10-12.

Kristin has used Swiss chard for height and then purple ornamental pepper and moss ross in the front, I'm not sure but I think the lavender flower is a pinta flower. The use of the purple ornamental pepper and lavender flower on either side of the Swiss chard was perfect.

Sweet summertime in the beautiful Ozarks. I love mornings, the faint night sounds can still be heard, the coolness of the morning, dappled shade and coffee. A shabby chic tablecloth from my collection of tablecloths, and . . . . .

A fresh picked hydrangea, a sprig of ivy in a little bottle and my granddaughter who loves mornings and coffee too.

We must include her doll!

Sweet Memories to cherish!

Container gardening is so popular today. What makes it so interesting is anyone can have that little bit of sunshine even on a small scale, large scale and planted in anything you can find for a container. How awesome is that! I tend to go for any vintage or junk container and love to see other ideas from awesome sites on the internet, just driving in neighborhoods and in the country to see what other people have used for container gardening. 

But what about Silver Dollar City Theme Park, near Branson, Missouri. Yes, my kids, grandkids and my husband are roller coaster addicts, but me, no I go for the beautiful gardens. The gardens are so well groomed and colorful, I enjoy walking around the park and enjoying all the beauty. The funnel cakes and a bench are pretty awesome, too.

Combination of several different plants in containers.

OR

Just single plants.

 This park is shaded by huge beautiful trees, so most of the plants are shade tolerant varieties.
