Sorry about your potatoes! So discouraging!

Howard deserves a medal, and I’ll bet Mrs. Augie appreciated his bravery!

Lettuce is a wonder vegetable! Mine is punking out now and some is bolting due to the ridiculous temps we’ve endured, plus I don’t have a ‘safe from critters and puppies’ shady spot where I can keep it happier longer - don’t want to mess with shade cloth. Anyhow, there will be more for us this fall, but we had a good crop and there’s still plenty in the veggie drawer for salads into next week. :)

Today I got my sweet pepper plants in the ground. Grover was on a tie out and not too happy about it, but he survived. He is NOT helpful!

Also got another batch of pole drying beans in, and then I watered everything that’s in the garden and pots.

All this before it got too hot at 11am.

This afternoon I unpacked all of my TREASURES from our shopping spree, yesterday. Mostly boring household organizing stuff, but I did get some new tennies, so that’s always a thrill, LOL! We found both a ‘Sketchers’ outlet and a ‘La Crueset’ outlet that we’d not been to before. Impressive. Nothing makes me happier than a deep discount!

Also baked a batch of Pumpkin Muffins and a loaf of bread and now I am going to do some kitchen drawer organizing with my ‘stuff’ from The Container Store.

It’s the little things in life...
