  • Made squash soup

    I made a big batch of squash soup today. It is just cooling now so I can put it in containers and freeze it. Two years ago, I bought three acorn squash plants from a local market. However, when the squash appeared, they weren’t acorn squash. Last year I bought plants from a roadside stand…

    The tomatoes are coming fast this year. They grew so strong in the early summer that most of them pulled the tomato cages over or crumpled them onto the ground. Some of the plants were more than five feet tall. Not that we had a great summer, started cool, hot for about 3 weeks in…

  • Second colour of Spring

    I know yellow was my first colour here, but pink is now overtaking it. It’s still spring, right? Not summer yet. This is the Japanese tree peony in my garden. It blooms way before the regular peonies. The heather is covered with tiny pink flowers. My crabapple tree is in full bloom. Luckily we spotted…

  • Slow recovery

    I came down with a cold a week ago, and it became one of the worst colds I can remember. No fever, or chills. But a total wipeout in terms of energy, and a cough that won’t quit, no matter what I use to treat it with. Meanwhile, my job is to keep writing my…
