Recipe for Tender Cheddar Garlic Biscuits
Cheddar garlic biscuits are a tender addition to the bread basket at the dinner table and are easy to prepare. 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 cup cold butter cut into cubes, 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, 2 tablespoons milk, 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon parsley, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/3 cup milk, 1/4 teaspoon white sugar, 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar

I live in the United States bread basket - the Central Plains, if you will. It's been an unusually cool and wet season so far. This is helpful because my DEPRESH can plague me and the result will be my garden almost dying from lack of care or watering. Which activates MORE DEPRESH.
I am slightly concerned about my vegetables producing with so much lack of sunlight.
Anyway, it's another rainy day and I decided to take some pictures.
It's a nightmare keeping up with all the grass-pulling so its quite obvious I'm behind on that. It's hard to pull grass in the rain, lol. I've also been planting long enough, and been letting enough produce decompose where it falls that things have started just... sprouting up. I decided to let it grow where it may.
First up is this year's nod to Tolkien. I planted none other than... Lobelia! It's quite vibrant and lovely, and pops against all the surround green. The rain has made it look a little droll.
I am a sucker for calibrachoa:
My dad's geriatric cat, Oddball, was having none of my shit. Two days ago he came up to where I was squatting and pulling grass, and he rubbed himself along my back and sprayed me. Joy. Some sage and thyme in my pots.
Sage in a pot in a plastic swimming pool, because.
Randomly growing mystery squash (probs pumpkin) that grew up in an unexpected location.
I had allocated all my planter space when Pops brought home a cherry tomato. It almost died before I found a spot. There are tiny nasturtiums from previous years growing up around it.
Hot peppers (Thai dragon and Armageddon variety) I'm growing for my nephew.
Behbeh Black-Eyed Susans I'm growing near my grandmother's antique trellises.
My strawberries, which I need to mow down immediately. They finally produced this year. If I want a good yield next year, I gotta cut this nonsense down.
My beloved okra plants. SO DELICIOUS. I got the red okra variety this year.
Some type of sweet pepper, lol.
My tiny circle wildflower meadow. I have yarrow, echinacea (white and purple), Russian sage (I'm so proud of that little mother fucker), guara, hot lips sage, hollyhock, purple balloon flower, flying cardinal, black-eyed-susans, lamb's ear, milkweed, and amaranth, that I can yet identify. There are a couple mystery plants.
Rain-bedraggled wave-petunias.
Tons of seeds dropped from our bird feeders. Probably sunflowers? Just letting them grow to see what happens.
Ever since Animal Crossing had a whole hydrangea themed thing on the mobile camp game a few years ago, I've been dying to get some. The ones I planted last year - my dear Papa mowed over them TWICE, successfully murdering them. These ones are SO gorgeous and I'm so happy and proud to have them.
Some clematis next to a trellis. I may never win yard of the month because it's about COMPLIANCE and not beauty, but I sure do have the most gorgeous fucking yard in the neighborhood.
My cat-toilet/shade garden. The fact that any of this is still alive is miraculous. Yes, my ex is buried under there.
If I were a herbivorous dinosaur, I would eat the FUCK out of hostas. More of my shade garden.
Some lysanthus.
I have two other tomato plants, chives, and carnations as well. I have an orchid inside that is currently DYING because outdoor plants? Sure! I'm golden! Once those poor bastards go inside...
I hope you enjoyed this tour of my garden. Thank you, and good morning.
