Raspberries and Sweetpeas

Tuesday, June 5th, 2007

We are moving ever closer towards the dog days of summer and my plants are really starting to leap. I noticed a bright corner of the veggie garden this morning. There are raspberries beginning to turn red and right alongside them are some sweetpeas that are trying to grow over the fence. What wonderful color!

This raspberry bush is less than two years old. I hope we’ll get fruit from it for years to come. The sweetpeas have been around for awhile! ~:-D

About Lynn

I am a 40-something-year-old mother of four delightful children, have been married for 22 years to my carpenter husband, and live in a 1921 farm-style house. I find the most joy in my garden, growing and harvesting herbs and flowers and caring for our delightful bunnies.

I have a 21-year-old son, an 18-year-old son, a 15-year-old son, and a bright and bubbly (and very funny) 11-year-old daughter who is homeschooled.

I'm a North Carolina girl and I love sharing North Carolina links and information. I'm a book lover, bird lover, gardener and aspiring herbalist. I seek no help for my thrift store addiction. I do medical transcription from home part-time.

My Symphony

To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly; to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart; to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never. In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony.
William Henry Channing
1810-1884
