Hello and happy summer! It's hard to believe yesterday was the first day of summer. It sure feels like it with temperatures around 100 degrees. We are spending lots of time indoors in the AC where it's nice and cool. I'm honestly not a fan of heat, although I do like to see the sun shining, I just prefer not to be out in it.
My hollyhock plant flowered this year and I'm thrilled! I planted seeds last year and the plants basically were small and green with no flowers. I'm thinking it's about ten feet tall. It's gorgeous and makes me very happy. My raised bed is also filling in nicely with more wildflower seeds I planted last month. I should start to see blooms within the next few weeks. I'll be sure to share pictures soon.
We ran a few errands today and went for pedicures with my mom followed by brunch. It was fun hanging out and spending the day together. I bought all the ingredients to make homemade chocolate cherry ice cream and smores because that's what you do in the summer when it's super hot. What have you been up to? I hope you are having a nice summer so far.
We're enjoying some hot sunny weather here at the moment. Summer has definitely arrived, if only for a short while. X
