I've gotten to a place with the canning that I'm able to take a break for a few days. I ran another 9 1/2qts of green beans and five pints of okra pickles last week. Might do more okra pickles but I'm good on green beans for now.
The sweet corn is over a foot tall now. Some of it is sideways because of the pounding it took Sunday, but it will stand back up soon enough. The cabbage we seeded last weekend is up. I'll give that a couple or three weeks to size up then stick it out in the dirt to finish.
After two years of trying I finally got the kimchi recipe that my buddy's Korean Granny-In-Law has used for the last 70-ish years so I'll be trying a batch of that when the fall cabbage is ready.
I noticed over the weekend that the doodlebugs have taken up residence in my greenhouse. Wasn't expecting them quite so soon but I'm glad to have them.
I also realized that I've been negligent providing welfare kitty updates. I named the tortoise shell Laney (cuz I found her in the lane. lol) and the tabby is Oliver. Both are doing well and just about ready to go for their first vet check.
