Peaked at the garden when I got home from work yesterday. OMG I have a lot of shishitos to pick/eat. Just went out and filled a 1 1/2 qt tupperware full, about 50 of them, and could fill it again.

Got a hose clamp to put on the main drip line so I can turn everything off but the mushroom bed and water just that without the main line blowing off. btdt

Late July and not going to even hit 80 this weekend.

Bought new tires for the car a few weeks ago but can’t find my tire spoons so I bought a pair off ebay so I can get those put on today and cut my gasoline bill in half.

That and cut grass is my weekend.

Ordering wiggle wire and track this Tuesday am and it will be tight, but I think I can swing plastic next Tuesday, each about $300. Then it’s just another $300 after that - 7-8 more times. That and somehow fit $850 in for new tires for the truck before ice/snow weather.

Then next year, start all over by putting one of these old trucks together. Every spare dime, every month. At least that has a payday at the end when I sell it.

I’ve been intrigued by those of you who mention shishito peppers. I’ve never had them, but I found them at the grocery store, so I bought about 20 of them. Would love to know what y’all do with them. I’ll be looking up recipes shortly.
