One of the neighbors brought me a potted daylilly for my 40th birthday party. I planted it outside the next year. It has lived very nicely in the garden since then. It has reproduced and now I have about 6 or 7 of the same flower. It's one of the prettiest things in the bed...unfortunately, I have to wait all spring and early summer to enjoy! The buds started forming about a month ago. Worth the wait!



Dick and Lindy are continuing to give me their extra produce - it's a lot of fun. I took them some "garbage cookies" yesterday as a very poor form of compensation.

Here are some "fuzzy" soybean-like pods. They called the name, but I can't remember what it was. Lindy had boiled some in saltwater and let me try them. Yum! You just squeeze the pod open and out pop a couple of pea-like beans. They were a really neat snack.


Just photos of my "haul" yesterday.....
