The Weatherman is calling this week, 'Unsettled.' After one of the driest growing seasons I can remember, we get rain NOW? Yeesh! Yes, I know. Count my Blessings; it will all too soon be SNOW!

We had tons of rain 2 out of 3 nights last week. My tomatoes did fine somehow.

However, tonite is supposed to get into the mid 40s so I picked all my Tom’s that are begging to ripen and put them iny sunny window sill.

The rest...we shall see how they handle the cooler night time temps.

I did a big harvest today. I filled two mesh bags that previously held 10lbs of onions....I filled them with fresh bell and poblano peppers.

I filled a mesh bag that previously held 5lbs of lemons.....filled that bag to the brim with jalepenos. I am going to pickle them tomorrow.

I am off work the tomorrow and the next day
I am goingvto reorganize my greenhouse house shelves ( remove half the shelves to make room for potted peppers and eggplants that still have young fruit on them.)

Two days ago I ripped out my cucumber plants and planted seeds for greens.

I don’t have ‘Hobbits.’ I’m developing a robust post-Apocalyptic skilled dwarf tribe.
