Helpers

It's been a busy week with lots of family back and forth. Mulching, mowing, painting, weeding. Sushi with a side of mac and cheese. Brunch at the creperie. Dinner at Amazing Hot Dog. Miniature golf. Whoopee cushion fun ("too bad" it broke, finally). Slingshots. Basketball. Not much time left for blogging.

Off to Boston today to return helpers to their keepers and celebrate a seventh birthday tomorrow.

What darling helpers! Were they visiting just for fun or were B&B off somewhere exotic?

Very sweet helpers. Have fun in Boston. Be well, Suki PS have put black plastic on the garden but just for 2 weeks to kill the weeds. Then take it off and hoe and then do the newspapers.

What is the name of those flowers in front of the fence again?

Those are hellebores - a most accommodating spring flower. They make lovely evergreen clumps and start blooming in March - before any of the spring bulbs. The flowers, which look fragile, are extremely sturdy and stay around into June. They are much more widely available now than in the past. People are catching on to their good attributes!
