Midday Muse: Everblooming California
Since I grew up in the Midwest, I associate mid-September with falling leaves, chilly temperatures, and apple picking. However, here in California, where I've lived for seven years, I'm still getting used to the concept of mild seasons. As if to prove this to me, my rosebushes, which were just blooming back in May, are back in full yellow-and-red splendor again.
Su Casa: The Bloom's on These Roses
Su Casa member Demure20 snapped some photos of her beautiful rose garden. The color and variety of roses she has at her home is impressive — as is the beautiful health her roses appear to be in! We only have three rose bushes at my house, and although I've never considered myself a rose type of girl, I think that Demure20 has changed my mind.

This is a little area on my back deck. SweetPea couldn't stay out of the picture.
Show Me Your Casa!
Along with raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, getting a sneak peek into all of your homes is one of my favorite things. I love to see how you've interpreted your personal style in your home, and how you run with the design inspiration you find online and in magazines. And, I'm always inspired by your homes myself.

Open House: How Do You Deal With Pets in Your Garden?
My mother-in-law has amazing flower and edible gardens at her cabin on Whidbey Island, off the coast of Washington. She also has a very exuberant ball-fetching standard poodle named Zoe. When I visited the cabin last weekend, I walked around her property, stunned by the bursts of color from her rhododendrons, peonies, roses, lilacs, honeysuckle, and numerous other flowering plants.
