Well dear listeners, we gabbed a little too hard on the Italy front in episode 5... So, in true Italian fashion, we decided to serve an extra course with a BONUS Breakout Session to sneak in all those motions from the floor! In "Inspiration Station," Molly basks in her deep love of pro tennis and explains what in the world that has to do with garden design. As we enter spider season, Tessa enlightens us on Joro spiders vs. their pet Mr. Garden Spider. In "Garden Brag or Bust," Molly and Tessa discuss how what appears as garden busts can sometimes blossom into some garden brags. Although Tessa's brag is more readily available for consumption (see recipe below)... To round out the show the girls bemoan the dry spell that is currently afflicting their gardens, but discuss what they are observing that they can take into future garden decisions! So in summary, when life gives your garden lemons, make warm fig and bacon salsa!!! 

Thanks for joining this second helping of Episode 5 gab!

Show Notes:

+ If you are a documentary junkie like Tessa and Molly, here are trailers for some must watches on Netflix (discussed with such enthusiasm on this episode)

- Break Point Trailer

- Chef's Table Trailer

+ Tessa's Warm Fig and Bacon Salsa Recipe:

Warm Bacon Fig Salsa (adapted from a Publix recipe, if you can believe it!) I am almost incapable of actually following a recipe, so I couldn't share that one because I made so many edits. But I do owe dear old Publix for the flavor combo idea.
