Simple Pleasure-Watering Can


My Summer Simple Pleasure for today is
watering flowers with my new watering can.
Here in the Pacific Northwest, we have had
rain almost everyday this summer.
Today we had sun!
So, I had to try out my new watering can.

  3. Hi Christine,
    Watering with a watering can can be so rewarding --- you get closer to your plants and flowers and maybe find little treasures you dont see when hosing.
    God Bless

  5. Now I have "Mary Mary quite contrary?" stuck in my head. Watering cans do that for me.

    I love the simple pleasure, and the photo with the water sprinkling out is perfect.

  7. What a great picture! Your geraniums are gorgeous. We would be glad to get some of your rain here in Pennsylvania. My garden is drying up and burning away in this heat. I love your simple pleasure.

  10. What a great photo!

    I've been collecting water from the kiddo's swimming pool into my watering cans for the following morning... to water my plants.

    We've had a few rain showers here and there over the past several days... WHICH I LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!

    Bring on the rain.


    That said. I'm feeling very ready to be done with this pregnancy. I now have "cankles" last night and today - which has been (really) the first with this one.

  11. It has been so hot and so dry here that weeding is very easy...all you have to do is scrape the topsoil and they come right out. I'd rather have the rain though. Your new watering can is perfect for watering potted plants. Love the geraniums.

  12. Great pic! And a delightful simple pleasure!
    I didn't text a question to Josh Groban but if Crystal had been with me I might have asked if he'd sing with her! Now that would be FAB!
    Blessings!

  13. I love it, Christine! Love it! I'm a big watering can fan and have an antique metal one that makes me smile every time I use it. Sorry your summer has been so wet. Ours has been just the opposite.

  14. Great photo! I think we have been the opposite...sun almost every day and finally rain today :)

  15. Oooh...and a nice one it is, too! I love watering the flowers. You have to do it early here before the heat overwhelms you! :)

  16. I think the geraniums are enjoying your simple pleasure at least as much as you are!

    My daughter and son-in-law live in the valley too (Hillsboro). She too is tired of the rain!

    Blessings, Debbie

  18. My little grandsons love our watering can. They do have a certain appeal don't they, nostalgic almost. Hope your sunshine is there to stay for a while!
