August

Is this not a hornet? I cut the catnip back for the second time this year, this evening. Maybe flush Number 3 will happen in September?

Not all annuals are to be derided. Calibrachoa is very useful in an unpretentious, spilly kind of way...

I call this Mexico Libre: Tequila and Coca Cola. The latter, too, not to be derided...

    Me thinks it should be an America Libre, considering the latter... ;-)

    Centvingt - they called the Cuba Libre a mentirita because not all Cubans feel very free. The orginal was made with syrup of cola nuts (um, sounds like a disease...), which preceeded Coke as we know it.

    Louise - my macro means I get very close to the hornet. If it's a hornet. My coke drinks are guilty pleasures.

    Mentirita. How interesting. Is the Sex on the Beach a mentirita too? ;-)

    Otherwise it's just an awful drink.
