First dahlia of the season in my garden. Much earlier than years past! I think all of the rain has helped! Some years I have had to wait until almost October for my dahlias. #dahlias #gardening #summergarden #litchfieldcounty #litchfieldct (at Litchfield, Connecticut) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSMHkCMLpH0/?utm_medium=tumblr

Walking down our road today, I saw this very strange slug. I learned it is a leopard 🐆 slug! We’ve had lots of snails 🐌 and slugs this summer due to all of the rain, but this guy was quite a sight! About four inches long. (at Litchfield, Connecticut) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRkHOccMKL-/?utm_medium=tumblr

Green Twister Coneflowers- the newest addition to my coneflower garden. We are having great weather this summer! My garden has never looked better, except for my Swamp Milkweed, which has all died off. Too much moisture? #coneflowers #gardenlife #gardening #litchfieldct #litchfieldhills (at Litchfield, Connecticut) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRM5iLJs-_u/?utm_medium=tumblr

Recent summer dinner: salad of sliced fennel bulb, fresh oregano, endive, radicchio, fresh mint, Bibb lettuce, fresh nectarines, edamame, feta cheese, and shrimp. Dressing composed of fresh squeezed orange juice, minced shallots, honey, chopped fresh oregano, and olive oil. Recipe from Yankee Magazine. I added the shrimp for extra protein. #summersalads #eathealthy (at Litchfield, Connecticut) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQTvNTHMVBx/?utm_medium=tumblr
