Welcome to the Sunday Sunshine Blog Hop!
Good morning and happy Sunday!
Our week has been full with garden and various work jobs. I spend several hours every day just watering, transplanting, and weeding out in our garden terraces. We got a touch of rain yesterday, but not enough to reach the roots. We have a slow solar well pump, which we use to pump water to a tank up on the hill. With all of the watering, it’s been hard to keep up enough water. Today, or someday soon, we will reinstall the well pump to the deep water depth. We have two influxes of water in the well, and we’ve been using the shallow influx, but it can’t keep up, so we need to plunge it deeper. I’m told this will be a time-consuming project, so let’s see about that! Adam’s pepper garden made a nice blocky green pepper this week, then a hornworm came and champed both the pepper and lopped the top of the plant off. He was dispatched of in short order, but the damage… In other areas, we have some pretty blossoms and wildflowers! I think that the passionflower is such an interesting-looking flower! We are getting some baby eggplants and quite a few wild blackberries, which are very tasty this year!

Thanks Laurie for hosting this wonderful party! What’s the update on the kittens? Have a wonderful week!
Kittens…
We kept the orange/white one named Charlie, and the solid black one. Not sure I’ve decided on his name yet.
I was able to find good homes for the two tabby kittens and the orange puff ball went to live with my mom, while the little tabby/white one went to live with my cousin.
Charlie is a mess and thinks he’s the garden inspector. Black one is a rascal too. Maybe I’ll do a post to give some updates. I’ve put pics on Instagram so I forgot I’ve not updated here.
Thanks so much for featuring my garden sign–your veggies and passion flowers are lovely!
Thank you! God is is good designer!
So kind of us to “share” our gardens with God’s creatures.😁 There’s a woodchuck running around here with Brussels sprouts on his breath… 😣
Oh dear! Shame on him.
Thanks so much for hosting! Have a wonderful week!
I really enjoyed your garden photos! That hornworm looks menacing. I am glad you rid your garden of him! Thanks for hosting this fun party.

Glad he’s gone too!
Thanks for coming by!

Sounds like they would really cause a mess!
