The first mowing of Spring always yields the most hay. Drier weather usually takes its toll on the later cuts. We love seeing the bales in the field although they don’t remain there very long!

Hello sweet friends. I hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend. Ours was mostly quiet. Butch and I had lunch with my Daddy on Sunday, and we grilled burgers yesterday for our son, daughter-in-love, and the Princesses. With Memorial Day being the unofficial start to summer, what better time to take a look back at some of my favorite garden tablescapes. Please join me in the garden and I will provide a tall glass of sweet tea with lemon and mint!
