The light is changing so quickly. Thoughts of canning change to ideas about sewing. Afternoon naps sound cozier. It's easier to let yourself be distracted by the current good read.
We have another burst of warm weather on the way. We'll make sure we grill and enjoy it. Hopefully it will help those reluctant green tomatoes ripen. We unearthed the American Harvest food dehydrator, it has been purring away on the counter making raisins out of our over-abundance of cherry tomatoes.
We made an bang-up Virgo dinner with friends this week. We were too modest to take pictures of the food while we had company, but the menu was a killer.
Roasted figs stuffed with black pepper goat cheese, drizzled with a balsamic reduction for an appetizer. For dinner, a saute of golden beets and haricot verts, green herbed risotto, roasted rosemary and garlic pork chops with an onion marmaletta on top. Mmmm....
The garden is in it's 18th week. I love the subtle changes. The corn's going to try. It's starting to tassle. The eggplant is just about done. Little lettuces are springing up from seed here and there. Kombucha squash got it's second wind and is insuring we'll be blessing my garden neighbors with squash gifts soon.
