Friday is upon us and all is well..

Looking forward to the weekend. it is the annual Sundridge Sunflower Festival,  We may attend the Firefighters Pancake Breakfast Sat morning and then down to Main Street for over 60 Vendors along the street set up. Lots of water activities at the lake, and then Sunday, the big Triathalon occurs. this event draws people from across the province.
Today we are going to buy more blueberries and will dehydrate them. The owner of the gardens suggested this when Harry said he wanted to freeze some. They have dehydrated and say they are great that way - just throw on cereal in morning or bake with them..When you think about it, cranberries and raisins etc are done this way and just as popular !
The garden requires our attention badly, For awhile it was dormant with rain and cold but now is productive and needs to be cared for - picking dead leaves and watering and weeding. yesterday I bought four bags of cow manure for Harry to prepare the garlic beds for planting in fall. that is what we will also use the bales of straw for - we picked all the garlic last week and have it drying in the shed right now.
Pati your comments about the Not Afraid Of Colour blog hit home. I, too, felt a sort of "kinship" when I first starting to read and now for sure think her words and work are quite meaningful for me. I enjoy logging on to see what she has written or done - Thanks again for the prompt. And there this morning was her latest- a cute little felt owl.
Well, time for my morning coffee and get ready for the day and weekend. Hope you folks have plans and so enjoy your time!
Take care.
