Sweet Peas

 It's 30C again but amazingly I haven't even had to turn on any A/C. Must be because the humidity is so low ( 31%)  With the hot weather I think the Sweet Peas will soon be on the way out.  I picked a bunch, mixed perennial and annual. The perennial have no scent but are so robust. There;s a light pink one that escaped and is growing horizontally over the whole back garden. You can spot it in the bouquet.  The ones I sowed from seed in Spring are a mix of dark navy and also navy/white streaked.  After a slow start they flourished.

 



 The Morning Glories which grow on the North side of the arbour that they share with Sweet Peas are being ever so poky. I may have to give them some fertilizer but I'm afraid that then they'll just grow leaves and it's blooms I'm wanting.

I know many say that hot summer days are not soup days but around here we like soup all year around. I made a Vegetable soup and added a can of black beans. There's enough for 2 suppers. It's always a relief to have supper made .We'll have it with the last of the peach pie ( and ice cream). 
What are you having tonight?

 

Thanks for dropping by.
