Garden Update

And all this time, the garden has been doing its thing.

Gardening might be my favorite kind of magic because you do all the work up front. Then, one day, you go outside to enjoy the nice weather and surprise! You have veggies.

It’s been raining a lot where we are, and the weather turned cooler than normal, so even though it’s already September, we have a bajillion green tomatoes and only occasional red ones.

So many green cherry toms

We need a little heat wave please! Or at least a string of sunny days.

Meanwhile, we have beans! Remember those?

I was so excited when these guys sprouted!

And here they are!

The zucchini, yellow squash and cucumbers are also doing well. Hoping for a harvest in the next few weeks.

    For the last year, I’ve eaten oatmeal for breakfast pretty much every day. I love it with fruit and almonds and cinnamon and a splash of milk. Yum! But recently, I switched up my eating schedule and bam! No more breakfast, which kind of meant no more oatmeal (or at least not every day since…

    John’s rainbow scarf is coming along! It’s about 1/3 done. No pattern here. Just knitting and purling until he’s happy with it. FYI, we will be skipping green. John hates green. I’m working on my flicking technique, and so far I’ve more or less got it down on the knit side. Purl not so much….
