Happy Thanksgiving to all my friends and family! My Happy Place is here once again. The turkey is in the oven, everything is staged, three days of prep are completed, and I'm on the last page of my list, honoring everyone's mother Martha Stewart and the things she's taught me over the years.

Two of many Monarchs stopping at the Zinnia Sidewalk Café today on their way to Mexico.

My recent picking. It's all winding down, but I still have a ton of peppers maturing, and the sweet potatoes aren't ready yet. First time growing them. Hope it's not for naught.
