We had what is called a "strawberry moon" last night.

Even though this is from last June, it sure could describe what I've been through the past month or so!!!!

Thanks again to Garden Girl for sharing her columns with us.

I just KNEW I should have posted this last night.........

I had it all formatted and ready to go and was actually quite proud of my efforts, but decided to let it sit and post it when I got online this morning.

A storm blew in from I know not where and POOF — out went the power. That will teach me.........

Good information about not planting mimosa trees :-).

I’ve harvested 5 cherry tomatoes so far, but Pat’s gymnastics teacher is bringing in gigantic zucchini and lots of yellow crookneck squash. I guess he planted earlier.

Due to our cooler than normal spring, my tomatoes are not where they should be, but the broccoli looks like something out of a Tarzan movie. We also have two garbage cans full of yukon gold spuds which are doing quite well. (Southern Puget Sound)

When I lived in Jersey City, New Jersey, one of the best things about the back yard was the mimosa tree in the back yard. Simply beautiful and very fragrant. However, is does self-propogate at a most annoying rate.
