Catching Up

Today was a day of catching up on things left undone. The animals were all doing well. We needed milk and it was one of the first days I felt well enough to save it. I also checked the garden. I had cucumbers as big as zucchini and zucchini as big as my bird dog! The tomatoes are really producing well and it is time to make marinara sauce and salsa. I picked a large basket of red and yellow bell peppers and the first of our patty pan squash. I am really surprised at how well things are doing considering the heat and lack of rain. There were a few casualties, a few potted plants and herbs did not make it while I was unable to water ;o( Ah well, the boys did a great job elsewhere and I am grateful for that!
