You know, as a Master Gardener, I think it's important that I make sure that I don't do all the work myself. It's important to delegate tasks or else I'll spread myself too thin. My woofie Grete and I have a great relationship. She is big and can cover a lot more ground than I can...so when I ask her to sniff things for me, she always helps.
I love her.
She still needs me to meow instructions so she knows exactly what she needs to do. As long as no squirrels distract her, we're good.
Our new artichoke plants have started to produce.
We did not grow these beets...these were from the farmers market...but Grete woofie sniffed them out for us so we know that mom ended up with the best bunch. I think you saw Cory sticking her head in the bag yesterday. Mom uses a reusable Whole Foods bag when she goes to the farmers market. Yes, all Cory found in the bag were vegetables.
Our day lilies are blooming.
purrrr
At the end of a hard day's work, my job is still not done. I still need to hang out with my dad and remind him of all the good things we did in the garden today.
Gardening is hard. And it may get harder for Ichiro if Gemini is going to go look at the grass on the other side of the fence...
ReplyDeleteHow smart you are to delegate! We love watching these artichokes grow. Our Mommy thinks they are pretty. (pretty yummy)
ReplyDeleteEven with help, there is never a moment you aren't busy, Jonesie!
ReplyDeleteGood help is hard to find. It sounds like your delegation helps get the job done right!
ReplyDeleteJonesie, it's good to see you sitting back at the end of the day enjoying the fruits of your labor...well, at least your dad is! ;)
ReplyDeleteYou have a wonderful garden! Mom is impressed by your artichokes!!

You obviously work very hard at snoopervising the garden and yard. Your daddy and you deserve your rest after a day of labor!

ReplyDeleteLooks like the garden is keeping you busy. It is raining so much here we can't get outside to do anything.
ReplyDeleteWe hope you got a nice drink at the end of the day too! Some nip wine maybe?
ReplyDeleteThose are long days you're putting in, Jonesie. But you do have a fabulous assistant in Grete!
ReplyDeletePurrs,
The Chans (Tommy sends Grete a woof!)
Sounds like you have everything under control Jonesie. Those artichokes look great according to Mommy. Hope your human enjoys all that deliciousness. Purrs and hugs, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Josette
ReplyDeleteI cannot believe you have artichokes!! Those are my Mom's most fave "veggies" in the world!! She grew up right near the "Artichoke Capitol of the World"...Castroville, CA
ReplyDeleteEfurry great leader understands the impawtance of delegation. You must be a furry great leader Jonsie!
ReplyDeleteThe garden looks great, though there is nothing we would eat MOL

We don't do foods, just flowers here.
ReplyDeleteMommy wants to come harvest at your house, Jonsie!
ReplyDeleteWe're glad you and your dad can relax and appreciate how beautiful you have made your garden. Your artichokes look scrumptious!
ReplyDeleteWow, you look busy there..... Just don't get close to those Lillies, remind mom to keep them away from you as they are deadly to kitties.
ReplyDeleteHave a good Sunday!
Thank you so much for the sweet words you left me about Avalon...
ReplyDeleteHaving a good assistant sounds grete. I could use one myself. ~ Iza
ReplyDeleteGrete sure is a great helper, Jonesie. We think it's wonderful that you and dad can relax together and reflect on all the hard work you did in your beautiful garden.
