Sweet Salvage

I recently was introduced to this fantastic store by a friend.  It is only open for four days a month, and is located in the antique district on Phoenix on 7th Avenue.  I just adore this birdhouse I found last week:

It is hard to stay focused and expect a long line if you arrive right at 10am, but don't be discouraged!  The line moves quickly and there is enough merchandise for everyone to find treasures.

Address:  4648 N. 7th Ave., Phoenix  85013
Phone:  602-279-2996

They will be open again on August 16-19, September 20-23 and October 18-21st.

Happy Shopping!

A Gardener's Refrigerator

I recently posted a photo of my car trunk on a typical day.  Well, here is the current status of my second refrigerator. 

This is what happens in my house when your pumpkins ripen a little early.  Yikes!  The good news is I harvested all the pumpkins so I have just enough room to keep them happy until Halloween.

July Heat

Not much flourishes in our 110+ temperatures except for a few sunflowers.  I have four different varieties, but the Mexican Sunflower is my favorite. 

I think I'll spend most of the this month reading seed catalogs and preparing for a large fall planting!

Stay cool.....
