The long and beautiful Alaskan summer days are finally here.
The honey bees love this Miss Kim dwarf lilac. It was a Mother's Day gift from my sons and husband 15 years ago.
The rugosa roses bloom at the same time as the Miss Kim lilac, so the garden smells heavenly right now. In Alaska, we call the Rugosa Shrub Rose a Sitka Rose. A prettier sounding name, don't you think?
Garden Chives - so good in salads.

Several handfuls of fresh beach asparagus
A cup of fresh, sliced mushrooms, stems removed
1/2 cup chopped garden chives or yellow onion
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 Tbsp. butter
Garlic powder and salt, to taste
Doors wide open! It's 75 degrees today. A hot day for Alaska, and inside the cottage.

It's 7 o'clock in the evening. The sun will set behind the mountains in a couple hours.
I hope you enjoyed this little home and garden tour. Come again soon!
