Today I got almost 300 Roma bean seeds in the ground. They are in one
of the 6 boxes DH has replaced this year. All of the boxes are
finished but 2 still need to be filled.




And I picked and ate 2 Yellow Jelly Bean tomatoes. They tasted so
good. Don't see any more in the immediate horizon. I keep looking.

sounds like me when i'm out looking for peas/peapods
when they first start coming in.


Almost all of my tomato plants have some tomatoes on them. Some the
size of my little finger nail and some Viva Italias almost up to size
to start turning color.

i hope the sunshine keeps coming through for
you.


Tomorrow I will grind and strain rhubarb for jelly juice. I will
probably put the juice in the freezer for now. And it looks like I
need to pick more rhubarb. Maybe some of the neighbors would like
some. Got to ask. Made a rhubarb cobbler yesterday and we have had
several rhubarb custard cakes this summer.

when you posted before that you had 20something rhubarb
plants that gave me pause. that's a lot of rhubarb. but
now i get a glimmer of why you might want so much for if
you are grinding it and straining it...
