Into Mulch
I got home from work to find that Management had mulched all of our gardens today.
I have seven, maybe eight sunflowers that survived the mulching. Two don’t look too healthy though.
I don’t know why I bother.

Halfway through October, and I’m still wondering where September went. Today is the first day this month I’ve looked out the window and seen anything resembling autumn. A storm front came through yesterday, bringing with it periods of high winds. A few leaves in the trees, up to now reluctant to release their grip on…
Last night, we suddenly observed a lot of color developing in the chyrsalis all at once. In a matter of a few hours, we went from green to compressed butterfly. As I write this, Waldoette is busy finishing pumping up her wings and drying out. She’s definitely female. By the time you are reading this…
I don’t know if you’ve seen the movie or not. I can easily see how they missed it. What you see is a far-away line of dust at the upper-right hand corner of the screen, which is as far away from the action as it’s possible to be. In addition, there’s a chimney with smoke…
I’m at that sweet spot in the pain med where my mind is clear but the pain hasn’t come back yet. I’ll take advantage of it to make a brief update. Yesterday I hurt. There was one thought in my mind, and that was the countdown until I could go home. I had one last…
Cat from Hell met up with her first up close and personal encounter with Nature this evening. I knew something was wrong when she wouldn’t respond to the call of the dinner bowl. Investigation revealed a Cat too engrossed at the balcony door to be willing to break her rapt gaze for something as mundane…
I had a mostly finished bottle of Soave Bolla hanging around. I killed that. It didn’t quite dull things enough so I hit the half bottle of Fume Blanc handing around in the fridge. That seems to have taken the edge off. I am reduced that that which I scorned.
bite your tongue! WINTER? oh no, give me warmth.
of course, my kitties are lounging in A/C. cacti in a window box sounds great!
What about a fruit and cheese tray? Lots of melon, apples, pineapple & grapes with a couple different types of cheese to off set the sweetness of the fruit.
OK, now I’m hungry.

How about a crisp as a goodie option? After reading your post earlier, I got to thinking about what might constitute unusual. I posted one of our favorites; Rhubarb Crisp.
Of course, given your heat wave, ice cream sounds good too. Oooo ice cream over Rhubarb Crisp. yummmm
I like allimom’s suggestion about the fruit and cheese tray. You might add some olives or something to it, also.
Sorry to hear about your pansies. They are fragile where the heat is concerned. Last year was strange though as I managed to get all of mine though the summer looking pretty good *shrugs*.
Well, to put it none too delicately, SHIT. I am assuming that you have asked them to advise you before they do anything like that?
Freakin’ flower killers.
Is this the garden up off your patio or the one with the Canterbury Bells?
Did they give any warning or explanation for why they did this? I would pitch three kinds of a fit to them if that happened to me.
