Camp Lilies

Many years ago, I saw these lilies at a golf course near our camp and wanted some for my garden here. So, with shovel in hand, I asked if I could dig some up

I have no idea what they are called, but they are blooming all over the camp. Actually, they are not at their peak - starting to fade.

Learning to dance in the rain!

We are off on a two week vacation, something we have not done in many years. We are driving to our cabin in the mountains of West Virginia (20 hours) for a few days and then continuing on to Vermont to see the grand kids. Now some might say that is a lot of driving and they would be correct. 

Add to that 4 dachshunds! I think we might be crazy!!!! We have more stuff in the car for the dogs than for us. Just like kids. Here is Marina and Louie with their faces on the console. They love being close to us.

Hobby Lobby Copy

Last month when I was in Hobby Lobby they had some of their summer Decor on sale.  I spotted this watering can. I loved the chevron pattern and the blue color. I can't remember how much it was, I think around $20.

As I was looking at it, I remembered that I had purchased a watering can a while back. Maybe I could make it over.

Mango Pound Cake

I am still on the mango kick. With all the mangoes we picked, no wonder. If you are new here, remember all the mangoes we harvested this year. I made so many dishes, but have not been able to get them all posted. Plus you would probably be bored with mango, mango recipes day after day. I thought I would share my mango pound cake.

Although I used fresh mangoes in my pound cake, you could use frozen mangoes. The mangoes made the cake very moist. I put a buttermilk frosting on it, but you could also just sprinkle it with powdered sugar.
