I started the Memorial Day Grilling early

I fixed a pork roast today, that I stuffed with onions and bacon pepper and salt. Grilled on indirect heat for about 3 hours. Next to it I have some red potatoes and onions with olive oil, pepper and  salt  and I will add some rosemary at the end of cooking. In the last four weeks I have rarely used my kitchen for cooking. I am able to cook most everything on the grill. Since it started to get very warm in Georgia, it will safe me some air conditioning by not heating up the oven  in particular. 

Some Yellow Squash I planted a week ago from seedlings.

One of my Tomato Plants. A cherry tomato planted in the beginning of April

My grape tomatoes are already growing in abundance.

Some Sugar Snaps. They are looking great so far. 

I still have most of my small plants covered with tulle.

A quick update what going on in my garden.

I added the weed control to my melon bed and watered them in very good before the heat sets in today. 

It's been a week since I had the time to write anything in my blog. Sorry folks but business, gardening and trying to make some money has kept me from blogging.

It's been six weeks since I planted my tomatoes and they have tripled in size.

Today I planted cantaloupe seedlings in my raised bed. This is my first time for cantaloupe and I am afraid I probably planted too many. I will have to thin them out as they get bigger.  

I started the seeds about 5 weeks ago. I use plastic containers like in the picture further below. It works pretty good. I've got some onions that still need to be transplanted, some sugar snaps and lettuce. My tomatoes plants are becoming monsters already . They have tomatoes growing already. I have some nice heirlooms and vine tomatoes, Grape and Cherries. I always plant basil with my tomatoes and my basil is doing great. Basil is such an easy herb to grow.

This year I have some red, green and yellow bell peppers too as well as my usual banana peppers. And a hot cherry pepper.

I am dead tired and tomorrow will be another hard day.  Not to forget finding a way to keep the squirrels of my bird feeders. My Cats help but they are not always watching. Those squirrels are relentless !

Night Night!

Here is one of my first paintings Okefenkee Sunset available as a print on Sistino

CLICK HERE

I am just so upset about the fires that have been burning in the Okefenkee Swamp in South Georgia now for weeks.

As many of you know, I paint the Oke a lot. To me it's a magical place, a true wilderness, scary and mysterious, enchanting and frightening at the same time. 

There are snakes and bears and alligators and birds of all kind, plants that eat meat, just bugs not people *SMILE*.

And now I have just horrible visions of what is happening in the Oke and how many of the animals are in just dire straights.

I so hope we will get some rain, lots of it and for as long as it takes to kill the fires.

I'm praying  very hard, for the people that live there, for the animals and for the beautiful nature.  

"People that garden 
don't get old!" 

Gardening is about looking forward to the future!"

"An 80+ year old grandmother digs through gardening catalogs to find bulbs to plant in fall that will bloom in spring. People that garden look to the future they don't get old!"

Yesterday I took a picture of the same blossom * see further below and today at 10 AM this blossom has opened up to this beautiful yellow with peach.

Soon I will have to paint some Roses.

See pictures of when they arrived at my garden. 

April

You can read more about Roses  in my April blog.
