i haven't posted in so long i almost forgot how....i don't know what happened to me...just busy i guess.... or lazy is more like it....anyway we got the birdhouse up...and this morning somebody pecked a hole in the front and moved right in ...
i got these white snowball cosmos the other day and they are really putting on a show...
do you see him...there in the foxglove....they haven't bloomed yet...but Teddy just LOVES his garden...
there he is on his lawn...the little toy used to be a ball...he has shredded that pretty good...
looks like we will have a nice little crop of my seek-no-further apples this year...the little tree is covered in blossoms...Teddy LOVES those apples too.
we have the "mommy and poppy" chairs all set up for SUMMER. we love to sit there and watch Teddy play...
just look at that "show stance"...with the tail up in the "full shrimp curl" as we call it....
that's his favorite spot sunning in the late afternoon in mommy's sweet peas...
mr. Handsome...with his firepop toy....
my sweet teddy boy....
jaz at http://octoberfarm.blogspot.com/ made pulled pork sandwiches and homemade rolls the other day...it looked so good i had to make it too....
as you can see....the sandwiches were a BIG HIT around here...i just simmered a pork shoulder that had been rubbed with a dry rub seasoning...seared it off...filled the pot with beer and beef stock and let is go in the over at 275 for 4 hours. served the sandwiches with the coleslaw...just like octoberfarm....guess who LOVES pulled pork ? Teddy.

Teddy says, "When you've got it, flaunt it!"
ReplyDeleteI like that bird house !!!
ReplyDeleteKary, I wondered when you would surface again. It's nice that you are enjoying the springtime in SLO. Glad the rains seem to have stopped for now. I'm up in West Sac for a few days, visiting son #2 and my lovely daughter-in-law who celebrated their one year anniversary on the 7th! How quickly the year has gone!
ReplyDeleteTeddy is all grown up, too! He has definitely staked his claim at the Farmhouse!
Oh, how I have missed you friend and sweet Teddy! Xoxoxo

I wouldn't mind sitting in your sunny garden in one of those chairs and have one of those sandwiches :-D
ReplyDelete(But I'm afraid I would not share mine with Teddy, he he)
Kary - I've been thinking about you lately...
ReplyDeleteLove those pictures of Teddy - what a honey! He has made himself owner of everything in the garden, and probably inside your home too.
yeah! a post!!! teddy has the pose down pat! he should be in a show. i love seeing him in his kingdom!!!
ReplyDeleteI've missed you, glad you're back. Teddy looks so sweet and pretty. Joyce's pulled pork is fabulous. I made it over the week end.
ReplyDeleteso glad to have you back... love Teddy scouting around and checking it all out and i adore your birdbox... nice work!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are back! I missed you. Your birdhouse is very cute and how fabulous that somneone has already moved in. I've had a family of titmice in a birdhouse right in front of my kitchen window. Such fun to watch the goings and comings.
ReplyDeleteGreat pics of Teddy. Love that show stance!
I've never seen pictures of your garden from this vantage point before; I love the look of the neat, symmetrical gravel paths adding order to all the wild plantings. I love gravel paths in general, but what you've done looks especially inviting.
ReplyDeleteTeddy really does look like a show dog.
So glad to see you! Teddy looks like he's having fun in your beautiful gardens. :)He's such a cutie!
ReplyDeleteDear Kary and Teddy,
