My best friend Moreton's garden, two doors down, is such a fun place to be. There are lots of places to sit, lots of pots filled with bright plants, and two charming dogs (one is VERY funny-looking, a cross between a basset hound and a German shepherd, Daisy is lowslung with a big head and heart.)
Moreton is an interior decorator and a food writer, so you can imagine how colorful and lively her garden would be. Wait, you don't have to imagine--here it is, at least in part!
Wow, I'm drooling over the garden and the drawing!!

These are lovely, and WOW you are so lucky to have a gardening food-writing neighbor -- am fantasizing about the plant division and potluck sharing!
I must tell you, Citizen L., you cracked me up with your blog comments!
I dunno about that bit about me being arrested...suspect it's my arrested development that's more the truth.

What a lovely garden. And any dog with any bit of basset has got to be fun.

Regarding comment above--One might think a writer would be able to spell definitely.

Moreton, I changed it for you, since I definitely know that you know how to spell definitely ;D.

Wow! How lovely. I'm not sure all my potted plants constitute a garden, but I'm flattered that you, a master gardener yourself, consider it so.
The dogs, Daisy and Lilly, are most definitely part of the garden.
I love these, dear friend. Thank you!
