I finally got the fountain working. I try to get one thing like this done each day.
Yesterday I made this Asian noodle salad for the shelter. I figured they never get food like this. It is healthy and fresh and full of so many different kinds of vegetables.
I made about 45 quarts of it. It took forever for me to mix it together. I smelled like sesame oil and soy sauce all day. Here is the recipe:

Teddy loves having the cistern and the fountain running.
I think the running water relaxes her.
Yes, I am talking about you again.
I have a dead arborvitae that I need to cut down.
The wisteria is a monster.
The azelias are blooming by the phlox.
My perennial flower beds are filling in nicely.
This is a nice cool place to sit on a hot summer day.
The puppy finds it very soothing.

It was beautiful
I agree with Debra, sesame oil and soy sauce, sexy!
Plus, you still cooked for the shelter.
Mmmmmmmm, where does the cistern water come from? It's probably obvious, but I can't figure it out. :-)
I haven't seen pictures of your yard in a week & I am amazed at how much you have accomplished. The flowers & plants are growing so quickly. Wasn't it just snowing at your place a few weeks ago?
Everything is beautiful.
Your garden appears to be a place of refuge and peace.
I made a pasta salad with left over spaghetti tonight...it was good..but would have loved to have had yours!
Your yard has been whipped into shape..and is simple gorgeous. That arbor..don't I remember you having a lot of stuff cut back a long time ago..that arbor is spectacular! I thought that abor was one of the things that you had done. If it is...WHAT a comeback!
I came back this morning to take the time to enlarge all of the photo's. If one doesn't do that..you can't even begin to realize how beautiful it all is.
It's like being there. It's going to be a wonderful place to visit on a warm day in summer...I can only imagine! Sometimes I send your link to folks that don't even blog...just so they can see.
