Well.... maybe not a bounty. My nephew is doing a garden. We furnished some of the vegetables and he is the gardener. He likes hot peppers, so there is a whole roll just for him. I like bell peppers. That one is enough for my meatloaf tomorrow night. The bell peppers are full of little peppers and more blooms. I pulled the squash to cook for me tonight, it was the only one big enough. I want to fry the squash and green tomato together and add a little onion. Yum!!!
I have not been blogging or reading lately. I have been busy in the yard. We went from wearing a light jacket 2 weeks ago to 87 this week. No Spring for us this year. Looks like we may have a hot summer. I hate the heat. I love summer for swimming only. If I am outside it better be by water because you will found me jumping in or wetting myself down with that hosepipe laying around!
I have been doing so stitching too. Not as much as I would like. I have been in a pickle lately, trying to decide what to stitch. I finished that AOTH block. I picked colors for the next block and I didn't have 4 of them, so I had to make an order to purchase. I want so bad to stitch on something Halloween. It has been so hard to decide. I picked about four things, narrowed it down to two. Couldn't make up my mind, so I am stitching both! Sounds like me!
I picked another Blackbird design. I had the linen, floss and leaflet since it came out. I even went and purchased the box. Well, I have decided to stitch it now.. Here is my start:
It is stitched on the called for Confederate Gray Linen 30 Count with the called for over dyed floss. Then I found a project I had started a couple of years ago. I need to finish it soon. The Primitive Needle's - Hornbook Angel.
I would like to get the frame. This picture is off Valley House Primitives Site. I love this frame. This is mine so far:
I also have another project in the works... I work on the Casting A Spell in the living room. I work Hornbook Angel in the sun room. Then I have one I work on in the bed at night.
Santa's Village - Post Office is not getting stitched as fast as I would like it to. I seem to keep falling asleep. lol
That is all for today.. I have to get up and cook some dinner.
Till Later......

OH the colors are on the bbd is delicious, our garden isn't very far along, lots of plants and just now getting buds but here is hoping for a wonderful summer of fresh veggies.
I love the Halloween designs. I'm also itching to do a Halloween design! Great veggies. That looks like late July or Aug. in the Pacific NW.
There's nothing like fresh veggies! Love your stitches ~ the BBD is a great project. I'm with you in the heat....especially when it comes with the humidity!
Those vegetables are looking good! Love your Halloween choices. Try to stay cool! :)
I love Hornbook Angel, can't wait to see your progress on it. And isn't it so fun eating stuff fresh out of the garden!
You have a bit of Stitcher's but they all look lovely
Great start on the BBD and the Hornbook Angel is awesome!
Wow veggies already! We have mostly blooms on our plants. I did get a couple cherry tomatoes already, but they were already pretty far along when I got the plant. Nice progress.
Love all your starts. I think I am going to start the BBDlove one too. I bought the pattern and box. Think ill stitch a few blocks per month maybe I can finish by Halloween.
