Minerva Mae spent the summer, last year, tending garden.
She had a rough summer...too much rain in the Spring...
too many weeds to keep up with.
This year she is happy to be supervising the new garden boxes.
And because the garden has had a makeover, so has she.
They did wonders at that spa.
Here is what she looked like last year:
After following a good diet and getting plenty of exercise,
not to mention letting her hair go back to its natural shade,
(no more bottle blond for Minerva)
and a new dress and apron...
She looks marvelous, don't you think?
Her cheeks are rosey, her eyes are bright.
She's ready for a summer in the sun,
beneath the shade of her new sunbonnet.
PS: Sissy and O'Malley are due to kid any day now. We are so excited for the birth of their little goats....the first for each of them. We will let you know as soon as the big event happens!

Amazingly, since Minerva has taken up residence in the garden, it is virtually weed free (we won't mention that I spent the entire past week on my hands and knees). Regardless, the garden is the best it has ever looked at this point of the season....

She's Back
After spending months at a Caribbean Spa,
Minerva Mae Honeycut
has returned to supervise gardening at
Bee Haven Acres.
