How Does Your Garden Grow?
Well May Long Weekend here in Canada starts in about 12 hours! Whoot!
And this weekend marks the time to Get Ready and Garden! Finally.
Time to plant your seeds. Time to get those bedding plants. Time to turn on the sprinklers.
Then wait. Wait and wait for the sun to get everything growing. I love this time of year!
Here’s a little tour of my garden, just waiting for growth and flowers!
This is our raised garden! I love this!
We planted gladiolas, green beans, peas, zinnias and strawberries in here this year.
My baskets with hanging strawberries.
My shade bed that does not get a lick of sun. Full of hostas, bleeding hearts and pansies.
Waiting, waiting…
This is where we spend a lot of time.
So we will spend our time waiting for summer, while noshing on these!
Just click on the images for the recipes!
Happy May Long!

Happy Weekend!
yummy!! all that food looks so delish!!
your garden is going to be so gorgeous!
Your backyard is beautiful and all of that food is making me hungry. 🙂 I’m going to have to whip up some of that smores cake.
wondering if we’re neighbours….looks so similar! 🙂
Makes me want summer to come. My husband built me a couple of raised garden beds and a few things were planted in them. Unfortunately, it snowed yesterday and I’m thinking I’ll need to start over again. All your food ideas are making me drool!
our new raised beds are in “bloom”…I can;t say full bloom yet because I know that I will jinx them!! LOL!! I really have the worst green thumb ever!!! I will share pics with you though in just a minute! Thanks for all of your kind remarks! I have really enjoyed reading your blog!

Your garden looks beautiful!
Does hanging the strawberries and planting them separately help them grow better?
Happy Victoria Day to you!
Your raised bed makes me want to do one on my side yard for a garden. I have been tossing the idea around. You have a wonderful backyard and that burger does look delicious. Visiting from FJI.
Love, love, love the raised bed. I will come back to see how it grows in!!!
Ahh, I love your garden! Makes me want to get out there and start mine already, I’m late this year!Thanks for the inspiration.
I love your yard! The garden space, your patio. Your recipes look yummy too!
I think this post might be my favorite yet! First, your garden and yard is GORGEOUS! I love the hanging strawberry plant idea. But even more than all of that, those recipes for a summer bbq are amazing. I almost cried when I saw the Smore cake. Nothing has ever looked yummier in my life! And those hamburgers too… my goodness.
Great post!

What’s under the stones around your raised bed to prevent weeds?
We just applied fabric weed barrier to prevent weed growth.
