i hope some plants will keep on going

for above freezing nights.


It's good weather to get garlic planted

I've been waiting for some rain. It continues to miss us. North,
south, east and west of us has had some rain. No frost yet, though.

This is the first year I've ever had fall lettuce and bok choi bolt.
The weather has stressed them a lot.

Was able to pick some greens to add to wonton soup for dinner
yesterday, and pick a few more ripe tomatoes.

Some of the squash look to need another week or so without frost
to finish ripening.
