SHOW & TELL FRIDAY



More participants here

This week I am proud to show you my garden. I have to admit that I had never a green thumb. I found gardening rather boring. But since I am blogging and see so many beautiful garden pictures, I suddenly felt inspired and planted for the second time petunias in pots which stand in front of our house and along the entrance during spring and summer. Unfortunately I didn't count with these lovely creatures called snakes !



and that's what they did !



I declared war put a product and collected the corpses. My petunias survived, but became very skinny and now really ugly. So for the 1st of October I decided to replace them with some autumn flower decoration.



I planted decorative cauliflowers and added some pumpkins. This pot stands besides our mail box.



on the little wall besides the house, I put this



and along the entrance to our house these little yellow flowers which will become bigger I hope. I think they are asters, but I am not sure. I bought them because I have been told that they last until frost. Names are not important to me.



My work of course was supervised by my cat Arthur. He loves when people work outside.

WEEKLY WINNERS - PUMPKIN FEAST

For the Weekly Winners I take you to the Pumpkin feast which is celebrated this weekend near my town Waterloo.

It was in the middle of an area where you would never expect large fields. When I stopped at the address which I had got from a friend, I first saw nothing but a little farer was this lovely farm house.

There later drinks should be served








and then I saw it ! it was a huge field



with tables and seats for the guests !


All varieties of pumpkins were present !






My friends are walking amongst the pumpkins, they want to buy some to make a nice soup.
