Thursday Favorite Things Party
Welcome to Thursday Favorite Things Party
Happy Thursday! You probably are not going to believe this, but I am on the road again. It was rather sudden. Hubby wanted to come to Vermont to see our son. We looked at dates and then hubby said, "let's go on Tuesday". Of course I had just driven 15 hours from PA on last Thursday and now 23 hours to Vermont. We wanted to fly but driving gave us the most flexibility.
We drove for 15 hours and then spent the night. We were both tired. On Wednesday, we drove around 8 hours. Now to enjoy the grand kids and my son. The guys will be doing projects, mainly chopping down trees for fire wood. I am usually doing some yard work and lots of cooking while my DIL works.
Of course there is the drive back home. Not looking forward to that, but will think of it next week.
I hope you are all doing well. Have a great weekend ahead.

Welcome to You're The Star - Creative Feature Week
Happy Monday! I hope you had a great weekend. Mine was busy especially after being gone for a week. I had a wonderful visit with my Mom. Now, it's back to work. I worked on a couple of projects and did laundry. It has been hot so we did spend time in the pool.
I hope you have a wonderful week ahead.

Blooming Sweet Potato Vines
Blooming Sweet Potato Vines
While I was visiting my Mom in June, I came back with some sweet potato vines from the nursery where my sister works. They were quite little. I planted them and then set the pot under my tree.
It has been growing and doing well. When I came back on Thursday, hubby said, "did you see your plant blooming?"
There were these small pink flowers that remind you of morning glories.
I was so excited. I sent my sister a picture and she was shocked. She showed the plant to her boss and he was shocked.
Little did I know that it is rare for sweet potato vines to bloom. She said in all the years she has been there, no sweet potato vines have ever bloomed.
They wanted to know what I did. I didn't even fertilize the plant, just sat it under my tree.
Like morning glories, they close up at night and then bloom in the day. I checked online and it said the same thing about it being rare for them to bloom.
Do any of you have flowering sweet potato vines? I would love to hear from you.

Happiness Is Homemade Party
Welcome to Happiness Is Homemade Party
Happy Sunday! I hope your weekend has been wonderful. Mine has been good. Doing lots of gardening. I brought a number of plants back from Pittsburgh. My sister works at a nursery so I was going crazy. They were getting rid of many of their vegetable plants so I bought some back with me, like cabbage, hot peppers, basil and tomatoes.
I bought my daughter some plants too so I helped her get them planted today. I still have some others to plant, but not sure where yet.
I hope you have a great day!
