It's cooled down, a lot. I made 5 pints of dill pickles, and a marbled banana bread, yesterday. And the house was still cool after the oven and...
I read that in my area the potatoes don't get the seed pods often. They usually get them when July has been cool and wet, and we've had both.
Odif, thanks. After I post this reply; I'll go read it. I harvested more cucumbers, tomorrow, if there's more, I should have enough to make a few...
I went out and checked the potatoes, today. I will probably harvest the Yukons tomorrow, if the thunderstorms hold off. I actually have a tomato-y...
We've got thunder storms, again. I just went and closed all the windows, but the front door is open. The cool breeze feels nice and I won't be...
Growingpains, now I'm wondering what my onions would look like if I dug them up. I cut all around the core of 2 onions, then cut the top and...
I did nothing in my garden, but I went to a neighbor's house and picked black raspberries. There's supposed to be thunderstorms this afternoon.
My beans are going crazy, I was able to pick some beans and "helped" the cucumbers grab the trellis. I saw some Smurf size cucumbers on them. And...
I went out to mow the lawn and saw 2 small blue potatos and a red potato. Stupid chipmunk! So I watered the potatoes, then took rocks and filled...
Oh! I forgot to mention that I made clover blossom jelly yesterday. And my neighbor told me she has honeysuckle out back and I can have the...

I didn't do anything in the garden. The sky was spitting off and on all day, then around 6-ish it was a down pour, with hail. I did continue my...
When I would get "logs" given to me, back in the day, I'd take the seeds out, then grate and freeze for zucchini bread in the winter. I never...
I went out early this morning and thinned dill. I also cut stevia and they are both in the oven drying, now. I cut my lemon and regular thyme...
I did notice that when we lived in Texas it had pink flowers. My clover are blooming and they are yellow. One of the pots of potatoes...

I missed onions this year, but I did get some shallots. This is my first time growing any kind of onion-ish plant. I've grown garlic, but never...
