Yesterday my friend and neighbor Walli and I drove to Edom. She treated me to an “after birthday lunch” at Edom Bakery & Grill.


She’s such a sweetie. What a wonderful neighbor she is. She just brought me a wagon load of old pots for the garden too.


Then we went on down the road to Blue Moon Nursery. We roamed the grounds individually. When you go  there, it is so tranquil that you just lose yourself in the beauty of nature’s blooms.


Some of the infamous fairy gardens on display…


We’ve decided we just have to make one of these for our own gardens.


We  had SO much fun. Two days in a row of birthday celebrating!


And pretty blooms to bring home.


Walli in the background shopping…


An end to a perfectly wonderful week for me. Thanks, good friends!

  10. I am going to have a fit and fall in it, if I hear one more thing about y’all going to blue moon without me:) Seriously, I am so glad you had a nice day. How about N Tx. Garden Bloggers’ Hoe Down. Put your hoe down and come out to where ever we plan to meet? Have not come up with a good name for our group.

  13. I love Deb’s suggestions for a “hoe down” would that make us “hoe’s”? haha, I amuse mysef again! EVERYONE wants to go; let’s set a date and everyone meet, go “Mooning” and then to Edom for lunch (or vice versa). Let’s start planning now and try for some time in late March, so everyone will have time to plan.

  14. Brenda,

    I’m so glad Walli took you out to lunch for your birthday and then a trip to the nursery. You lucky girl! What is the exact date of your birthday? I thought I had it on my calendar but obviously not.

  15. Hi Brenda, birthday bash part two was just as good as part one! Plant shopping, ah, just the thought of it sets my heart a twitter. Soon enough there will be plants lining the tables here too. Your Edoms looks very Texan to me.
