This is a PILE
and this is A NOTHER pile
who would think that an innocent thing like a pile of weeds could cause dissention in a marriage? George doen't like my piles, but I say that if I didn't leave piles, he would never know just how much gardening I actually do! Does that make sense? It does to me.
In my own defence, I will say that if I go out on an Official Weed I use a trug for the weeds, but most of my weeding is unofficial, i.e. I go out to do something else and get distracted. I was checking on the greengages and spotted some phlox that needed to be cut down. It is a bit late after all these years to hope that I will change, so there. Anyway, my lovely Echinacea 'Green Envy' is in bloom - isn't it glorious !
I'm off now to finish a fruit salad for eight - it has taken me ages to cut up all the fruits and none out of the garden I am afraid. The greengages are not ready nor are the blackberries and I'm not sharing my figs! I'm just waiting for the caustic comments about the piles when George comes in ! (He's a pussycat, really)
