Hello Folks and Welcome In
This is the perfect time to embrace the beauty of Arizona! The desert is in bloom. Along with our gardens.
We enjoy sitting in our backyard overlooking our gardens, especially during the Spring when the flowers and cacti begin to bloom. Our oasis becomes an extension to our home.
Our Spring Oasis


“To plant a garden is to dream of tomorrow.” ~Audrey Hepburn


“ A flower does not use words to announce its arrival into the world; it just blooms.” ~Matshona Dhliwayo


“If you truly love nature, you will find beauty everywhere.” ~Vincent Van Gogh
Garden Visitors
Many birds, lizards, and bees find joy in our Gardens too.




“A heart without dreams is like a bird without feathers.” ~ Maya Angelou

Al Fresco Dining
We enjoy dining outside in our gardens as well.





Being in the Garden is a time of relaxation for me. I think of nothing else when I am planting, pruning, or trimming.
If you do not garden, you may want to try it. It is so fulfilling.

Thank You
I hope your gardens are bursting with blooms or beginning to show those lovely signs of new growth.
As I always try to convey… we sure do appreciate all of you. Thank you for joining us for another Tuesday Tidbits.

Your gardens are beautiful, and your tables look lovely with delicious selections. Life is good in your neighborhood.
That it is. Thank you Judy. Our backyards keep us sane from all the craziness.
Nancy, your garden is stunning! I could sit for hours and just enjoy its beauty! I would have every meal alfresco and could spend hours admiring each flower!
Thank you for sharing its beauty. I know the hard work invested in order for it to be a showplace!! Happy Tuesday, my friend🌸🌼🌺
Thank you, Pam. For some reason, gardening is not hard work. Now housework is backbreaking! 🤣
Thank you always for your kind words.
Wow, Nance, you are so right about the beauty of the plants and visitors to the garden at this time of year!
It’s paradise! Thank you Mr. Mark!
Beautiful photos. Love the birds and the flowers.
Thank you so much, Tim!
Wait a minute, did I just land in Oz?
You are so sweet! 🥰
Thank you Dorothy!
Your background is so lovely. I can see why you enjoy sitting outside immersed in its beauty. 🪷🪻🌺
Awe… thank you Ingrid!
Just beautiful, Nancy. I couldn’t agree more about gardening. Relaxing and therapeutic. One of my favorite pastimes.
Mine too Ruth.
Thank you so much for your kind words!
I’m so glad you shared your amazing garden and backyard oasis with Sunday Stills this week, Nancy! It’s nice to know that it’s not hard work for you. Your meals served in your garden look luscious too. Enjoy spring in the desert my friend!
Thank you Terri! This was an easy challenge for me. I love gardening.
By the way… the desert misses you!
I may be back there sooner than later, Nancy, my dad’s health is declining rapidly. Too long to write, but I imagine we’ll back there within a few days. 😕
Oh Terri, I am so sorry to hear about your Dad. Sending hugs to you my friend. I will keep you in my prayers. 🙏
What a lovely oasis you have nurtured and such meaningful quotes to share! Thank you Nancy! Those peeps look like so much fun!
Thank you, Sue!
And yes the peeptinis are quite tasty!
Nancy thank you for sharing your beautiful oasis. Eating alfresco is so relaxing that it really doesn’t matter what you are eating…so anything is a bonus. The Captain and I eat outside every chance we get…it just tastes better doesn’t it? Of course it all comes with a price of hard work, but it is worth it once it is finished for the day. Blessings dear friend and enjoy your lovely space. 🥰
Kari you are so kind. Thank you for the sweet words.
I am off to enjoy my tea outside right now!
Muscari are so pretty. I’m looking forward to seeing some soon. And that little roadrunner is a charmer and a wonderful photo as well. It’s all lovely, Nancy!
Thank you Jeannie. Just a little piece we call Paradise. Thank you always for your kind comments. So nice of you.
Nancy, you have so many beautiful flowers, and your outdoor space is gorgeous. I enjoyed seeing all of your feathered friends and reading the lovely quotes you shared. We are finally having some pleasant weather so I have been gardening all day. I love being outdoors. It is definitely good for the soul. Enjoy your week, sweet friend!
I am glad to hear you enjoy gardening as well. It is good for the soul. Thank you always for your visits and your sweet words. They mean so much. Happy Spring!
Absolutely gorgeous!
Thank you Monica! 🥰
Your garden is gorgeous. I spent last weekend in the Phoenix area and really hit a sweet spot with temperatures.
I am so glad you were here when it was a bit cooler. It has warmed up this week. 100° yesterday.
Thanks so much for enjoying our gardens. 🥰
Peeptinis 🤣 that’s a good one Nancy! As always your flowers are so beautiful due to your amazing gardening skills.
You are so sweet Diane. Thank you so much.
What a gorgeous space…so peaceful. I could spend all day there. Way behind on commenting from last week.
I am so glad you enjoyed the gardens. We sometimes find ourselves doing the same thing.
Hope your Easter was lovely!
