Fruit in the Garden

In my garden I have planted many types of fruits and berries amongst my flowers. I have apples, plums, peaches, grapes, cherries, blueberries, strawberries and raspberries. I also have planted many herbs. It’s fun to spend the sunsets in the garden picking fruit. Here are a few more pictures of my garden.

Fourth of July Pink Flamingo

Here goes another Pink Flamingo flying South to my sister’s house dressed for the Fourth of July. My sister adores Pink Flamingoes .... They make her feel as though she is on vacation. What a wonderful feeling!

Have a  great day!

Lord of the Rings Cake

My son makes cakes as an extra job and I am his assistant. I love this because it takes us two days to make one of these wonderful cakes and I get to spend all that time with him. It is creative bonding time.

He was asked to make a "Lord of the Rings" graduation cake for a group of boys graduating this year and incorporate some of the boys interests into it. This is what we came up with. It took us two long days, lots of laughs and a few close calls. We also hope the mountain won’t fall over in transport tomorrow.  

Ralph Lauren's Bohemian Crochet purse

 
I have published some new crafts and pages on my website. http://teawithlavera.com/ 

Ralph Lauren has a new collection of purses called a "Collection Purse" in his summer line. The Collection Purse is a Bohemian crochet purse. It’s in this month's Vogue (July, 2012). The purse is on several websites and costs anywhere from $875 to $935.

If you’re like me you can’t afford Ralph Lauren’s "Collection Purse"! Check out my website, I teach you to make a look alike for about $22.!! If you have some beautiful old doilies around you can make one for cheaper than that.

This is Ralph Lauren's Purse you can buy it at  NET-A- PORTER for $875.00
