Perfect Sunday

Today it was warm and sunny enough to blast some Stevie Wonder and plant this . . .





So afterwards I stopped this man . . .







And ended up with this magically delicious mango paleta.

Beat that, Monday.

oooh - what are the plants that you put in?

All annuals today: impatiens, begonias, and some other stuff I picked for looks and neglected to check the names. Same goes for that beast of a perennial in front of the tree (I love it so!): it's one of the usual suspects among Chicago perennials -- small pink, bell-like flowers. Someone? Anyone? Can you help with my horticultural amnesia?

Perennial with pink flowers - It's a Bleeding Heart (Dicentra spectabilis). I love them too.

Bleeding heart: that's the one!

In honor of my George McGovern loving parents and the legacy they passed onto me.
