I still am not sure where I got it as we have not seen poison ivy or oak in our yard for years. I guess all the rain we've had has bought it to the surface! xo ♥<br />The Joy of Home with Martha Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02912198511168813613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7664100447631245881.post-27273414935494206072015-07-24T15:56:23.048-04:002015-07-24T15:56:23.048-04:00Oh, no!!

(I must look up photos of them!) I hope you will feel better very, very soon! Thankfully, Grayden can take good care of you, sweet friend. These are not the kind of gardening surprises that we ever want to see!

Gardening is full of surprises. As I was pulling out some St John's Wort this week, there apparently was poison ivy or poison oak amongst the plants. I never saw it. Grayden was helping me and he is fine but I have quite a "good" case on my hands. Have a wonderful weekend and look out for poison ivy or poison oak in your garden! ♥The Joy of Home with Martha Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02912198511168813613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7664100447631245881.post-3717411384752448562015-07-23T19:31:12.817-04:002015-07-23T19:31:12.817-04:00Your Granola recipe sounds really yummy, Martha El...Your Granola recipe sounds really yummy, Martha Ellen! I LOVE breakfast, too. I make a Flax Granola using whole flaxseeds. It's really loud and crunchy! Just chewing it is a real workout! So glad you snapped a photo of the unique Hibiscus blossom.

Thanks for reminding me of it. Your Swiss style sounds interesting. <br />I need to check to see if it is a sucker under the graft--It's been so oppressive here with high temps and humidity. This morning is much nicer, so I'll be out in the yard working and looking for that sucker. ♥The Joy of Home with Martha Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02912198511168813613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7664100447631245881.post-74821034077114916472015-07-22T08:54:23.067-04:002015-07-22T08:54:23.067-04:00Lucky you, Cheryl, to have your own chef in reside...Lucky you, Cheryl, to have your own chef in residence!

Oddly enough, I've been thinking about trying home made Muesli, as Hugh Fearnley~Whittingstall has just been extolling the virtues serving it Swiss~style, mixed with orange juice instead of milk, with fresh, grated apple and a dollop of home made yoghurt. I prefer muesli as it is not as hard on my teeth. <br />I do hope, for your sake, that the hibiscus is not reverting! I've tried to Google some information, but the only thing I can come up with is that it might be growing on a sucker from beneath the graft.
