I want to try making a few Syrian recipes, so I made some rose water with petals from our rose bush. Looking forward to trying it in a few drinks too 🌹

A male Araneus diadematus, also known as the European garden spider or cross orbweaver. Common in NE USA gardens. Many people don’t like spiders, but I think he’s beautiful.

Partially cut back a very prolific hydrangea and discovered this lone Black-Eyed Susan thriving in its midst. A very inspiring moment…
