MOOD BOARD

How can it be Monday again...I would swear the weekend jar must have a leak in it. Meanwhile another great weekend, weather wise, and one spent in the garden, finishing up with some annuals being planted, now being safe from frost, and a lunch and dinner out with different friends. My next-door neighbors moved out this weekend, their house sold within three days. They told me they listed me as a feature as one of the houses selling points, lol!!!!! They were a swell couple and he was hot...a dead ringer for Travis Kelsie. Not sure who bought it yet but I'm hoping for a hot gay bachelor!!! Who is at least 6"5", waist 33" and brings a sausage factory, tanned skin, mischievous looking and happens to be a fitness instructor and hails from South America with a name like Miguel. Too much to ask for? All told not a bad weekend, except for the carnage. Sophie Lucille is still in confinement awaiting judgement.

Hope everyone is having a great Monday so far!

And it is true, a wet weiner does wiggle better.

IRIS & PEONY

It has been quite a rewarding spring this far in the garden at the Casa du Borghese. This week's stars of the show, and I suspect next week's, will be the peony and irises! Blooming in all their glory. I have already cut three vases of peony for the indoors, with at least another 80 buds ready to open.

And here's a overview video of the back garden...as of this morning. Forgive my video skills, I never said I was a Chi Chi LaRue with the camera, or maybe it was because of what's at the end of the video.

CARNAGE...THE HORROR!

The Garden Murderess has struck again!

The morning started out with Sophie Lucille not only eating another bird, but later she caught and killed a fallen from the nest baby squirrel, which she ripped to shreds before I could get if from her. The scene was grisly.

The murderess is currently in confinement.

LATE NIGHT...MELANIE C

 I always love the Spice Girls, even better with solo works. 

Melanie C's newest from a couple months ago.

I don't hate it.
