Time flies...
especially when one is busy.
Welcome back to Pilgrim's Cottage.
With all the rains the last few days...
the ckicken coop has been slow in getting up.
But, today...
it does look like it will be finished.
I love white flowers...and pink ones.
The guava trees are blooming their beautiful white flowers that you see in above photo.
The plant in below photo is also blooming but,
honestly...I just cannot remember the name of this tree.
Now, the next ones below are the cotton plants blooming...
what will come of them, I can't say as yet...
that remains to be seen.
In the meantime...
the cotton flower above and below are the same one...
and the same one below...
the same exact flower.
I was pleasantly surprised to see how this gorgeous bloom turns from white to pink.
It first turns a pale pink as the petals start to fold in...
Then, it becomes an even darker pink over time...
I get two in one!
White and pink blooms!
Pink...the Lord must have thought of us women when He created pink...
and pink flowers, to boot!...
do you think?
After I tore myself away from staring at my white and pink blooms...
it was time to do some work in the garden.
Foxie sat on the water tank and watched.
No dogs allowed inside my potager.
My cucumber patch is doing wonderfully....
I staked a tepee trellis for the cucumber vines...
with extra branches at the top for the doves to sit on.
While our honey bees were busy among the cucumber flowers...
I admired some of the cucumbers growing...
they do look rather gorgeous.
If you look behind the front cucumber in the photo below and to the left...
Well...I picked it.
That one is for supper tonight.
Yea..the doves do like my garden, too.
Those branches come in handy as a "look-out".
One more bloom to show from my flowering vine that is growing along my potager fence.
"There is nothing better for a man, than that he should eat and drink,
and that he should make his soul enjoy good in his labour.
This also I saw, that it was from the hand of God."
Ecclesiastes 2:24
Yes, indeed.
Blessed be the Lord.
May your day, or night bloom with blessings from our Lord God.
