Late August


This is the Tangled Garden in Wolfville. A small magical place I visit every time we go there. I love this wee arbor. Very inviting, just one of a few artfully placed about the place. The building you see at the end is the potting shed.

We really are in those golden days of late summer. The nights are beautifully crisp and make for grand sleeping. The days are warm and lazy. Gardens are wrapping up their summer party. I've got the window open and there is a fine fresh breeze wafting through.

How about this?....watermelon and tomato salad! It was really good. Odd combination but it works. I saw it mentioned somewhere and thought, I must try it. So....I did :)


RAP DITTY, scroll down to find it and vote if it pleases you. It will please me:)

What a beautiful place. I love the pictures. And that salad looks yummy. I love that you included pecans.

That arbor is awesome. If I can ever afford to really fix up my back yard, I want something like that on a much smaller scale. :) I never would have thought to put watermelon in a salad. Not sure why. I put apples in my salad quite often. I'll have to try it!

My daughter and I LOVE the Tangled Garden too! The owner and Nature Girl had a wonderful chat together about their favorite book - The Secret Garden - the last time we were there. Must go for rose petal icecream and a stroll around the labrynth before first frost.
