You have me waiting in anticipation for the luscious looking drinks at your picnic. I'm glad you repeated this post, 'cause I would have never been able to enjoy the ambiance.
Shadows of lemons And shadows of pears; Shadows of gremlins And shadows of bears; Come to the picnic Down by the pond, For of your presence I’m rather fond!
That drink in the photo looks so amazingly refreshing! Love the strawberries in it.
I left you a reply in my comments regarding the water usage. We fortunately got off restriction last year I think but they charge I twice for water usage in my town so I'm very careful about how much we use. I have three rain barrels I use in my garden to water the flowers and for just washing hands after gardening or rinsing pots out - that sort of thing. You can find a food grade barrel and make your own so you don't have to buy one. I also still have a bowl in my sink to capture water from cooking or rinsing veggies which I use to water my plants. Still have a bucket in my shower that captures water also.
Thanks for stopping by and finding my new place! It was nice to see a comment from you even though the subject matter of my blog has changed.
On a hot Texas day, the mere view of water and shade takes about 20° off the thermometer (at least visually). You, and the ducks have picked a fine day in the shade for fresh and cold lemonade.
Prayers for rain in TX, we had a rainy spring up in New England so have not hit a drought this summer. In a state that grows crops prolifically. Prayers for rain are all we can offer...
Well, this is my first time seeing this yummy and pretty/fun picnic! it all looks wonderful BJ! And you granddaughters are all so pretty! have a wonderful Sunday.
I think you were doing the same thing as we were...playing with the ducks. Love the shot. Since I did not get to see this the first time, I am so glad I did today. Have a nice week. Genie
Lovely photos. The ducks seem to be enjoying the shade of the tree. That drink looks so yummy and refreshing. Looks like you had a good time at the park!
