Yeeesssssss.....
contented sigh I picked my first ripe tomato today, a Stupice. It was delicious. I'm savoring the moment, not going to think about how I'm more than a month behind where I was this time last year. Nope, not gonna think about it. There was fresh basil to go with the tomato. Penelope -- "Maybe you'd like to ask the Wizard for a heart." "ElissaAnn" |

The squash has started producing and the bees have found it. I picked one eight ball and one regular zucchini for supper tonight. I will saute it with home grown onion and garlic. Also sprinkle a bit of Italian Seasoning on it. I also discovered how far winter squash can spread. Next year we will plan for more space around them. The peas are on their last legs. Will plant pole Romanos in their place. -- Susan N. "Moral indignation is in most cases two percent moral, 48 percent indignation, and 50 percent envy."

Central Florida, Zone 9B here and Tomato season is over. Picked the last two just the other day and they are small laggards. It's too hot to grow them here over the summer. Will plant the next batch come labor day. David |
