Edible Flower Friday and September Birthdays!

Happy September Effuryone!! 

Before we start Flower Friday, we want to wish all our Blogville September babies a very
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
September 6th - Oz
September 9th - Maddie the Pug
September 11th - Emma the GBGV
September 24th - Micah
September 29th - Ruby (I hope she has a margarita pawty!)
(want your birthday added to the Blogville Birthdays? Email the date to us a bethblog(at)ebchristians(dot)com and we'll make sure you are added to the calendar!)
Today, on Flower Friday, we are going to show you the Nastur-eaty-flowers that are in our...what's that Mama?? OH, sorry...they are Nasturtium Flowers!
Look behind me...they are growing all over the neighbor's fence!!



Mama says that in some restaurants around town you can find these flowers in salads, or used to help make the plates look pretty! That's why I call them Eaty-Flowers...because Mama eaties them!


They are also very pretty!!





Mama said it is safe for us to eaty them too, but they are veggie-tables, and that means they are good for me. Dory taught me to always hold out for things that aren't good for me, so I told Mama I'd pass!


Jakey is a different story though...BOL!!



Mama said she would see if she could find some at the Farmer's Market for Jakey to try. We find lots of peemail in these flowers, and for some reason, Mama doesn't think Jakey should eat them....





Mama loves the pretty red veins that run along the top petals...and how the vines grow through cracks in the fence!


They also grow all along the top of the fence!


Thanks so much for joining us for Flower Friday this week!
We hope everyone has a pawsome Labor Day Weekend!!!

Hop aboard and show us the flowers blooming in your corner of the world (If you don't see the link here, please click HERE to go to our Hoppity page)!!

    Those are beautiful, Mommy grew some from seeds one year and she LOVED them. They didn't come back though and we haven't seen anymore seeds. Mommy will have to remember to look for them again. And Mommy eats them too.

    I am not a good gardener, but am tempted to plant some of those in the spring. :)

    Very clever thinking of Mama! Love the flowers though. I wouldn't mind some in my garden, but the roses we have are pretty as well.

    We wouldn't mind some escapee flowers like that. We just get vines that come on our side of the fence and try to strangle our plants.
