Not the most lady-like view of this pretty little sipper but one does what one must! :) From my garden last summer...
We're off on another little jaunt thru the wilds of TX and won't be back until after the New Year...so want to take this opportunity to wish all my fellow BP'er's and the BP staff a happy, healthy and (optimistically!) prosperous 2011!
