Hello! 
I hope everyone is having a great week. It's been hot, but beautiful here in Bluegrass country. The crepe myrtles have bloomed and are simply stunning. Unfortunately, early in our garden season, rain has become our biggest concern. It's funny how you make preparation for problems anticipated based on previous years...wildlife, insects, too MUCH rain, etc. and the issue always ends up being something else. So...we are praying for rain these days. 
Hubby is in his final full week of school. Students are gone for the summer, but, due to the harsh winter and snow days, teachers are still in school to meet contract requirements. Oh well, it gives them time to prep for next year. Nevertheless, we're excited about the start of summer break. 

On to the party... Welcome! And a big HI to all the new party-goers! I hope you'll feel welcome and come back regularly. Those of you that are here each week...Thank you! I appreciate you all and truly enjoy reading and sharing your projects, recipes and wisdom. So let's do it all again! Party on! Excellent!
