Welcome to Villa Emilia (My Woodland Garden), a photography blog with a slant towards gardening and nature. An amateur gardener and photographer, I hope to share beautiful moments with you through pictures. Let me know if you like them! 💚
Oh yes, Nadezda, the water is warm! I enjoy swimming very much and feel very comfortable in the water. Some years ago, floating there in the lake I noticed I'm falling asleep... and decided it's safer to return to the shore. :) Coming soon over to see how your weather is now!
Kiitos, Sari! :) Saimme Pentik-näkkileipää lahjapakkauksessa lautasliinojen yms. kanssa. Luulen että sitä saa Pentikin verkkokaupan ja myymälöiden lisäksi myös tavarataloista.
Your posts never cease to amaze me Sara, beautiful! I am feeling rather warm now and could do with dipping my toes in the icy cool water along with the water lillies with a cool drink of buttermilk. Well no actually, I would prefer your Mother's doughnuts and coffee :) It wont be long before the birds are feasting on those berries! Have a wonderful week in your beautiful part of the World :)
Thank you, Prunella! :) Cold buttermilk is very refreshing on a hot summer day. The red currants grow on old, wild shrubs and we are rather relaxed with them. My father did, however, hang a hawk-looking bird scarer above them. We'll see if it works. You too, enjoy the summer! <3
Beautiful photos. I feel the warm weather when I see you photos :-) Here it isn't hot now. I a glad I can open te windows again. Your photo with the red berries is so beautiful!
Lovely sights of summer and wow, a fabulous lipstick! Lucky you to wear this colour, I am too fair to pull it off but think it is a luscious shade of red. Interesting that you drink buttermilk, my late father used to...but for me it is a liquid to bake with. Hope to see you at Maggie's for MM next week. Have a good weekend!
Ihanat mausteiset värit! Kesää parhaimmillaan. Meillä jo linnut napostelivat nuo punaiset marjat suoraan puskista. Tuo yki roskiksen aprikoosikuorinta on mun lemppari :) Ihanaisia kesäpäiviä sinulle!
Hi Sara. Your photos are so bright and colorful. Really pretty. I always enjoy seeing your flowers, surprised and I don't know why that you grow much the same as we grow here. And the lip stick. Glamorous.
Hitsi, mulla ei mitenkään aukea kaikki kuvasi, vaikka kuinka odotan!:/ Ne, jotka ovat näkyvissä, ovat huikean hienoja! Täytyy tulla uudelleen yrittämään, josko sais kaikki kuvat nähtäväksi...
Voi, apua! Yritän pienentää kaikki kuvat aukeamaan sopivan nopeasti. Missähän nyt oli vika? Onneksi kuvat tulivat lopulta näkyviin! Kiitos kommentistasi! Nyt tulen katsomaan millainen heinäkuu Mansikkatilan mailla oli. :)
Ja simsalabim! Kommentin jättämisen jälkeen sain kaikki kuvat näkyviin.:D Mulla oli kuitenkin tää sun postaus koko Kollaasihaaste-kierroksen auki, hassua!
Wonderful shots, Sara, love the red hot lipstick, just my shade! A great post celebrating all that's great about summer! Thanks for joining me for my first MM, hope to see you again soon.
Wow, Such GORGEOUS photographs of beautiful flowers and so on♡♡♡ The first mosaic picture is WONDERFUL♪ Thank you SO much for sharing and have a wonderful new week. Sincerely from Japan, xoxo Miyako*
Wonderful summer colors, Sara! As I scrolled down through the photos, I was surprised by the lipstick, but its color is also summery. Your mosaic is wonderful! Happy August days to you!
Oh my gosh it has been so hot here! I would just give anything for one cool summer evening. Anyway, love all your summertime photos! Have a great week! http://travelingbugwiththreeboys-kelleyn.blogspot.com/2016/08/buttermilk-syrup.html
Ahhhh, summer! You have captured the heat with your bright colours. Such beautiful images and a wonderful mosaic. As always, I love the flowers, especially that gorgeous yellow rose, and the yellow waterlily(?) in the mosaic.
Hot colors of hot summer... Enjoy!
VastaaPoistalovely colours! love the water lily leaves! here it is cold! 1C this morning.
VastaaPoistaCongrats on warm weather Sara! I liked color of your leap stick:)and the photos of a lake, it seems the water is warm too. Did you swim?
VastaaPoistaOh yes, Nadezda, the water is warm!

Nam basilika-tomaatti näkkäriä! Missä sitä myydään?
Kiitos, Sari! :)

VastaaPoistaIhan mahtava meininki :)
VastaaPoistaPäivät niin helteisiä ja öisin on usvaa.
Ihanaa ja nautinnollista loppuviikkoa!
Piimä virkistää helteellä. Etenkin jos lorauttaa sekaan appelsiinituoremehua.
VastaaPoistaNiin kauniit kuvat että pitää ihan huokaista ihastuksesta.
Punaiset viinimarjat nimeän suosikkikuvakseni tästä sarjasta :)
