THE PERFECT DAY FOR A TRIP TO GOOSE COVE








All weekend long the weather was perfect. On the Today Show this morning Matt called it "Chamber of Commerce weather"...all over the Mid-Atlantic! We were up early and had a great frittata breakfast at The Willow Rest (my new favorite go-to for everthing to do with food...and it's so close to us!). On the way home we headed to Goose Cove to pick up a few things for our windowboxes. A full-Subaru and empty bank account-later we left with more dahlias than we needed, gorgeous white geraniums, a single foxglove, peach-tinted verbena, vinca, 2 pineapple sage plants, coneflowers and more... and a great antique toolbox planted with all sorts of edibles. Needless to say, the rest of the morning was spent planting and watering. Pix taken with iphone so they don't do justice to the floral wonderland that is Goose Cove!
